Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Theresa Nemenz

Theresa Nemenz draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy as core approaches in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with practical strategies that reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how early relationships and unconscious patterns shape current feelings and interactions, which can be helpful for understanding relationship problems, attachment issues, and deeper emotional patterns.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Theresa, as a licensed professional, collaborates with each person to determine what fits best. She works with clients to set goals, assesses progress, and adjusts techniques based on individual needs, goals, and preferences so the work feels relevant and achievable.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for people with busy schedules, limited mobility, or geographic constraints. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access regular support, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward therapeutic goals.
