About Teresa

Teresa Buss is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem struggles, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting concerns, anger, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She brings five years of clinical experience and emphasizes a person-centered, compassionate approach that honors each client beyond diagnostic labels. Teresa highlights the role of the body and breath in healing and incorporates expressive practices to help form new habits and emotional regulation.

Her style is warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative, focusing on relationship building and motivating clients through challenging moments. Teresa draws on attachment-based thinking and narrative work to help clients reframe their stories, while mindfulness and motivational techniques support present-moment coping and sustained change.

She tailors treatment plans with each person to match their goals and preferences, integrating breath work and image-making as part of a bottom-up approach to foster neural and behavioral shifts.

Teresa welcomes clients who want to make sense of patterns shaped by trauma and life transitions, and she combines clinical knowledge with lived experience to guide pragmatic steps toward recovery and growth. She accepts international clients and conducts sessions online through the formats available.

Integrating attachment, narrative, and mindfulness in online care

Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore how early relationships shape current patterns and to strengthen emotional connection and safety within the therapeutic relationship. This approach can help people understand relational triggers and build more supported ways of relating. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and offers tools to reframe those narratives, making space for new meanings and healthier patterns when coping with trauma or life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices like breath work to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, blending methods as needed so the plan fits the client's needs and pace. This makes it easier to adapt when new issues arise or when a different strategy would be more effective.

Online therapy here is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access that fits varied schedules and life demands. These formats allow clients to engage from different locations and to continue consistent work through challenging periods, while preserving the interpersonal elements that support growth and emotional regulation.
