I am pleased to write a review for Tressa, who I have been working with for almost a year now. I cannot express enough how much Tressa has helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life. Tressa's guidance and support have been invaluable to me, as she has helped me navigate through my personal relationships, my past childhood trauma, and my role in caring for a parent with mental health challenges.
Tressa's expertise is evident in her cognitive behavioral therapy tasks and guidance, which have been critical in helping me recognize my own thinking and actions, and ways to change unhelpful habits and patterns. She has been patient and compassionate with me, and has created a safe and welcoming environment where I feel comfortable discussing even the most sensitive topics. Her ability to ask insightful questions and provide thoughtful feedback has helped me gain a greater understanding of my own emotions and thought processes.
Tressa is responsive to my needs, and has provided me with tools and strategies to help me cope with challenges outside of our sessions. Her genuine care and dedication have been instrumental in my personal growth and healing.
Overall, I cannot recommend Tressa enough. If you are seeking a therapist who is knowledgeable, empathetic, and committed to your personal growth and well-being, Tressa is the therapist for you. I am grateful for all of her guidance and support, and I will always be thankful for the positive impact she has had on my life.

Tressa has been amazing to work with! In only two sessions, she has provided me with resources, insight and tools that I have been able to implement that have made me feel empowered. I believe and trust that I am fully capable of being responsible for my life; what I want and need; my own happiness. I am learning to trust myself to walk away and say no to things that are a contradiction to my beliefs, wants and needs. I am capable of taking accountability for my choices. I can trust myself to look after, love and honor myself. And that is what I came here to get. Thank you, Tressa. I am truly grateful and I am looking forward to continuing to work together. This feels good☺️

Tressa Henson is a forward thinking therapist - this is a person for your future. I found her very helpful: understanding in the right places, challenging in the right places - if you need a hands on therapist who isn't afraid to set you straight when you need (and we all need), this is the one for you. Caring, energetic, and firm - she will help you put together the building blocks that you can take to craft the person you want to be and the life you want to live. Highly, highly recommended if you are forward looking and want a good hand to guide you take those steps.

Tressa is attentive and caring but also challenges you to be your best self. She has assisted me in understanding how to become an effective communicator with the people I love. She has also equipped me with coping skills and CBT-centered approaches to help me understand myself and specific behaviors. It has been a great pleasure working with her, as she has truly helped me during a tough time in my life.
