Getting to know Teresa Paris

Hi there, I'm Teresa! My name is Teresa Paris, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in San Diego, California. I earned my Master's in Counseling from the University of Phoenix. I work with individuals, youth, and families who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, parenting, and family issues. I take an empathetic, nonjudgmental, and strengths-based approach to empower individuals on their journey toward healing and self-awareness. My approach My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each individual I work with. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support individuals in fostering stronger, more meaningful connections within themselves, their families, and their community. My focus I have found that my style and approach best support teens and young adults who may be struggling with the challenges that come from anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, and social and family pressures. I not only offer guidance but also equip them with valuable skills to improve self-esteem and foster a more optimistic perspective on life. My communication style I strive to create a calm and personable environment in each session. My clients often express themselves freely knowing they have a safe space to share their thoughts and feelings and build a deeper connection to themselves and others. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist was shaped by both lived experience and professional insights into the complexities of human interaction. This awareness inspired me to pursue a career where I could actively contribute to helping others navigate their challenges. My goals for you My approach to goal setting with clients is all about collaboration in order to address the concerns that matter the most to the individual.
