About

About Teresa

Teresa Carberry is a counsellor who blends practical talking therapy with gentle guidance. She holds BACP accreditation and brings 14 years of clinical experience. Teresa aims to make sessions straightforward and focused for busy, worried parents.

Teresa helps people facing stress and anxiety, low mood and depression, and trouble with intimacy and relationships. She supports those affected by trauma and abuse, and people dealing with addictions or anger. Parenting concerns and issues around self-esteem and life changes are also part of her work.

Background and approach

Her approach is person-centred, so conversations are shaped around each individual’s needs. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Hypnotherapy is offered as another option when it fits a person’s goals.

Sessions aim to be practical. Teresa will talk through coping strategies, set small goals, and review progress. She adapts the pace so people can balance therapy with family life and work commitments.

Teresa has worked across a range of difficulties over more than a decade. She says that reaching out is a brave step and that she offers steady, non-judgemental support. Her style is warm, direct and focused on helping people make manageable changes in day-to-day life.

Online support

How Teresa's approaches work online

Teresa uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on what the client needs and values. This approach is about listening closely, following the client’s lead, and shaping conversations to suit each person’s pace and priorities. It is often helpful for people who want space to make sense of their feelings.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps people notice thoughts and patterns that keep problems going. Teresa uses CBT to set small, practical goals and teach techniques to manage anxiety, low mood, unhelpful thinking and behaviours. Hypnotherapy is offered as an additional option to support changes in habits, easing anxiety or building confidence when someone prefers a more guided, relaxed approach.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will discuss options and decide together what feels most useful based on a person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions so they fit day-to-day life.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a near face-to-face experience, phone work can be easier on low bandwidth and for quick check-ins, and text or chat sessions suit people who prefer to write or fit therapy around a busy day. These formats make it easier to keep continuity and fit therapy into a varied schedule.
