About Teresa

Teresa Readhead works with stress, anxiety, addictions, family conflict and grief, and uses open, non-judgemental conversation to help people talk things through. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has seven years of professional experience.

Teresa keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. She listens to what matters most and helps people make practical changes. Conversations focus on everyday problems such as sleeping, eating, work pressures, and relationship tensions. She also supports people dealing with low self-esteem, anger, or major life changes.

Her practice draws on several well established approaches. Teresa uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships affect current bonds. She uses Client-Centred Therapy to follow the person’s own priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and elements of Mindfulness and Narrative Therapy, are used where they suit the problem.

People see Teresa for a wide range of concerns including ADHD, addiction issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related difficulties, bipolar and depression, and caring or health-related stress. She also works with topics such as body image, communication problems, and blended family issues. Sessions aim to make difficult problems easier to manage day to day.

Teresa is based in the United Kingdom and works in English. International clients are accepted. To begin, users are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.

How her therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Teresa uses Attachment-Based Therapy to examine how past relationships influence current patterns. This can help when communication problems, commitment worries or intimacy issues are recurring. Client-Centred Therapy means the counsellor follows the person’s agenda and reflects what they say to help them understand their priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting patterns in thoughts and behaviour and trying small practical experiments to change them.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Teresa will discuss the issues, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That decision is made collaboratively and can change as the work progresses.

The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so please confirm session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, caregiving or medical appointments. They can also allow shorter check-ins when a full-length session is not needed, or sessions without video when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help people keep therapy accessible alongside daily life.
