About Theresia
Theresia Jackson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She offers a straightforward, down-to-earth approach for people feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or stuck. Theresia listens, helps uncover what’s been hidden beneath the mask, and works with each person to find practical next steps.
She uses ideas from attachment work to help people understand patterns in relationships and why certain cycles repeat. Theresia also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build skills for managing emotions, anxiety, and rumination.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what’s most useful for the person sitting across from her. Theresia spent many years in advanced graduate study focused on marriage and family issues, attachment, and codependency. That background shaped how she looks at relationship patterns and family dynamics without getting lost in jargon.
She explains things plainly and gives tools people can actually use between sessions. People seek her for a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar and mood concerns, ADHD, addictions, body image and eating struggles, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and work or career stress. She also helps with intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, anger, and coping with major life changes.
Theresia offers online formats including video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. Sessions are described in direct, practical terms and tailored to each person’s goals and needs. Her style is honest, supportive, and focused on helping people move forward.

Online support
Approaches to attachment and skill-building online
Theresia blends attachment-informed work with practical therapies to help people understand relationship patterns and manage difficult feelings. Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people identify recurring patterns that affect trust, intimacy, and boundaries. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches concrete skills to reduce rumination, anxiety, and depressive thinking. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then choose actions that match their values.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Theresia collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on their goals, preferences, and what comes up in sessions. She adapts techniques over time so the work matches changing needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and situations. Video is useful for full sessions that resemble in-person work, phone can fit a break at work or low-bandwidth needs, and text or chat allow quick check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while using methods that address attachment patterns and build emotional skills.
