About Teresa

Teresa Walton-Skinner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who works with people navigating issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, anger, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With four years of clinical experience, she aims to create a respectful, compassionate environment where clients' strengths and goals guide the work. Her style is warm and interactive, drawing on person-centered principles to honor each individual's experience while integrating cognitive behavioral strategies to address thinking patterns and behavior.

Teresa adapts conversations and treatment plans to reflect a client's specific needs rather than applying one-size-fits-all solutions. Clients can expect an approach that emphasizes sensitivity and empowerment, avoiding stigmatizing labels while focusing on practical steps toward change.

Teresa highlights collaboration as central to the process and supports people through transitions, grief, workplace and caregiving stress, multicultural concerns, and questions of life purpose. She encourages those ready to pursue growth to take the first step and offers steady professional support throughout the journey.

Approaches that guide online sessions and practical benefits



Client-centered therapy centers each session on the client's experience and values, emphasizing empathy, respect, and a collaborative relationship that helps people explore what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill building, often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related issues. Solution-focused therapy highlights small, achievable steps and existing strengths to move toward clearer goals and faster progress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will work collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This partnership allows adjustments over time so interventions stay aligned with what a person finds most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, helping people fit care into busy lives and maintain continuity during transitions. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions, continue progress between meetings, and access licensed professionals from wherever a client is located in Georgia.
