About Teresa
Teresa Bubnis is an Ohio-licensed clinician who focuses on practical ways to reduce stress and lift mood. She uses straightforward conversation and problem-solving to help people who are anxious, grieving, struggling with self-esteem, or facing major life changes.
She has 25 years of experience working with people across a range of concerns. Teresa listens for what feels most pressing and then sets simple, achievable goals. Sessions are built around clear steps clients can try between meetings to notice progress.
Teresa draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape her work. That means she helps people identify unhelpful thinking, tap into personal motivation, and focus on practical solutions that fit daily life.
She also supports people dealing with aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, workplace strain, social anxiety, and concerns tied to pregnancy and childbirth. Coping with natural or human-caused disaster is among the additional areas she addresses when it affects someone’s wellbeing.
Her approach is respectful and down-to-earth. Teresa adapts the pace and tone of conversations to match each person’s needs. She encourages small steps and notes when those steps lead to real change.
How her approaches work in online therapy
Teresa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns in their thinking and try concrete experiments to change those patterns. That approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress because it breaks problems into manageable steps.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to draw out a person’s own reasons for change. This method helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps by strengthening personal motivation and commitment.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Teresa works with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and daily life. She adjusts strategies as progress is made, and checks in about what is or isn’t working.
