About Teresa

Teresa Fowler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting worries, relationship and family concerns, and codependency-related patterns. She also helps people facing grief, trauma and abuse, caregiving strain, chronic illness, and work-related pressures.

Teresa likes straightforward work. She listens for the patterns that keep someone putting others first or avoiding their own needs. Sessions focus on practical steps - identifying stuck habits, trying small boundary experiments, and building clearer ways to ask for needs. She uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy depending on what the person needs.

Her style is collaborative and action-focused. Teresa offers direct feedback and coaching alongside traditional talk therapy. She helps clients notice thoughts and behaviors that increase shame or people-pleasing, and then practices alternatives in session and between meetings.

Teresa works with issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, ADHD, addiction, communication problems, and intimacy-related struggles. She also supports people affected by cancer, disability, blended family tensions, and domestic violence impacts. Her bilingual skills include American Sign Language as well as English.

Practical matters such as scheduling and cost are handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the therapist's online options.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify personal values, and take small steps toward actions that matter to them. It can be useful for chronic worry, people-pleasing, and feeling stuck in roles that no longer fit.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical tools to test and change unhelpful thinking and habits. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and repetitive behavior patterns like avoiding boundaries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean trying a skill-based exercise one week and a value-driven ACT task the next.

Session logistics and specific formats are not detailed here, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people value online sessions because they can fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Online work also makes it easier to practice new boundary skills between meetings and to bring real-life situations into conversation without waiting for the next in-person visit.
