About Theresa
Dr. Theresa Boyd is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, and codependency concerns. She also supports people dealing with career strain, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and she practices in Florida.
Theresa takes a straightforward, practical approach in sessions. She helps people name the patterns that leave them putting others first or feeling overwhelmed by someone else’s moods or substance use. Therapy includes learning skills for emotion regulation, clearer communication, and setting limits that protect a person’s time and energy. Work often begins with small, manageable steps and real-life practice between sessions.
Her clinical tools include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered work. These methods are used to address mood disorders, trauma responses, addictive patterns, and problems with trust or closeness. Theresa draws on this mix to tailor what happens in session to the problem at hand.
She has experience supporting veterans and first responder issues and addresses concerns like compassion fatigue, jealousy, commitment worries, and control problems. Her practice also covers antisocial and dependent personality features when they affect relationships or daily functioning.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Fees vary by location and therapy uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It is useful when someone wants clearer purpose and less reactivity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical steps to change them. CBT is helpful for anxiety, depression, and changing people-pleasing habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out what fits best based on your goals and preferences. Sessions evolve over time so methods can be adjusted as progress and needs become clearer.
Confirm the specific session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins during work breaks, and remove travel time. Many people find remote sessions helpful when they need consistent weekly support without rearranging their schedule. Licensed professionals will discuss what works for pacing, practice assignments, and how to use between-session exercises to build new habits.
