About Teresa

Teresa Thiel is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma, ADHD, and related life challenges.

Background and approach

She approaches each client with a compassionate, nonjudgmental stance and helps people build skills to feel more in control and move toward goals they choose for themselves. Teresa emphasizes the importance of a trusting therapeutic relationship and invites honest feedback so she can tailor support to each person’s needs.

Her background includes a BA in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin - Madison and an MA in Community Psychology - Professional Counseling from Alverno College, and she brings four years of clinical experience to her practice.

Teresa draws on client-centered principles and evidence-informed methods when addressing concerns such as grief, sleeping problems, anger, caregiver stress, family issues, and life purpose. Her style aims to empower clients to discover practical strategies and find greater balance in daily life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Teresa uses client-centered therapy to create an accepting space where the client's priorities guide sessions; this approach focuses on active listening and helping people identify their own solutions. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) techniques that explore emotional patterns in close relationships to improve connection and understanding. Motivational interviewing is another tool she may use to help clients clarify their goals and strengthen motivation for change, particularly when facing ambivalence.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Teresa works with clients to assess their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts methods over time so therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single model. This allows for flexibility in addressing concerns like trauma responses, relationship struggles, or challenges with focus and emotional regulation.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which help make care more accessible and adaptable to busy schedules. These options offer practical benefits such as easier scheduling, reduced travel time, and the ability to continue work from wherever the client is located within the therapist's service area. Licensed professionals can use these formats to maintain continuity of care while tailoring interactions to a client's preferred communication style.
