About Teresa

Teresa Satterfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 15 years of experience. She helps people who are facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Her work focuses on practical coping skills and clearer thinking to reduce distress.

In sessions she uses straightforward techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Teresa draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside mindfulness and trauma-focused methods. She also offers hypnotherapy when appropriate.

Teresa commonly helps people manage panic attacks, mood problems, and feelings of emptiness or guilt. She has experience supporting caregivers, people with intellectual disability, and those on the autism spectrum with concrete communication and coping tools. She also addresses family problems, forgiveness, and issues around life purpose and midlife shifts.

Her style centers on clear goals and step-by-step strategies rather than abstract talk. Sessions typically involve identifying patterns, testing small behavior changes, and practicing new skills between meetings. This approach aims to make everyday situations easier to handle.

Teresa tailors the plan to each person’s stated goals and preferences. She explains methods in simple terms and tracks progress over time. To begin, clients follow the site intake steps and schedule an initial session to set priorities and practical next steps.

Approaches used and how online sessions work

Teresa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce distress; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and panic. DBT teaches specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can help with intense emotions and relationship strain.

She also integrates mindfulness practices to help people notice their reactions without getting swept away. Mindfulness techniques are short, practical exercises people can use between sessions to steady their attention and lower reactivity.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Teresa works collaboratively to decide which approaches fit a person’s goals and day-to-day life. She starts with concrete goals, tries techniques, reviews what helps, and adjusts the plan together.

The site intake describes how to request sessions; please confirm the current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. If a phone or video check-in is preferred, discuss this during scheduling so the session can be planned to match the person’s needs.
