My name is Teresa Doheny. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I offer Virtual therapy sessions for Individuals and Couples in Colorado. My focus is anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and life improvements. Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), and Emotion/Solution Focused Therapy.
My approach
I am trained in a variety of modalities, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches also known as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care to include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Gottman Method Couples Therapy and more. I continuously invest in my professional development to ensure that I am equipped with the latest tools and techniques to best serve my clients and help them navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or simply seeking personal growth and self-discovery.
My focus
I work with clients who have never had therapy, have tried multiple therapists, or want to try therapy again. My sessions are based on where the client is at during this time in their life. I offer a client-based approach to therapy.
My communication style
I strive to create a warm, inclusive, and non-judgmental environment where you can feel heard, understood, and supported every step of the way. I will bring a wealth of experience and expertise, offering a safe and nurturing space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
My journey to mental healthcare
As a licensed therapist, my journey to this profession was deeply rooted in my own personal experiences. Growing up, I faced my own share of challenges, navigating through periods of anxiety, self-doubt, and depression. It wasn't until I went back to school for a bachelor's degree in psychology and a master's degree in clinical mental health counseling in my late 30's that I discovered the transformative power of therapy. Through the guidance of many compassionate professors, I learned to navigate my emotions, confront my fears, and cultivate resilience. This transformative experience ignited a passion within me to help others on their own paths towards healing and growth.
