About Theresa
Theresa Cadd is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who brings five years of professional experience to her practice. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and uses a blend of approaches to tailor sessions to each person. Theresa aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk about what feels hard and find practical ways forward.
She describes her style as compassionate and patient. Sessions are collaborative: Theresa listens, reflects, and helps people notice patterns that get in the way of feeling better.
Background and approach
She uses straightforward tools such as cognitive-behavioural exercises and communication strategies to address day-to-day problems. Theresa draws on client-centred and psychodynamic ideas to understand how past experiences shape current feelings. This helps when people are dealing with grief, attachment concerns, or longstanding patterns such as codependency and impulsivity.
She also uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, achievable steps when immediate change is the goal. Her background includes work for a mental health charity and counselling roles in educational settings, experience she says helped her adapt her approach to different needs. In independent practice she continues that flexible way of working, adjusting pace and methods to fit each person.
Theresa offers a range of session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She encourages people to set clear goals and to use practical exercises between sessions to build momentum and confidence.

How Theresa’s approaches work online
Theresa combines client-centred and cognitive-behavioural methods to shape online work. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s experience, helping them feel heard and able to reflect on their goals. Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and uses structured exercises to change unhelpful patterns.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Theresa will discuss what matters most to the individual and match methods to their needs and preferences. Together they agree on goals and practical steps, with regular review to see what is helping and what could change.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat and text-based messaging give options for brief check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These choices make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family life, or changing routines.
