About Teresa
Teresa Byrne is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and LGBTQ concerns. She values each person’s strengths and works alongside them to move toward meaningful change.
Teresa begins by listening to the story a person brings. She treats that story as central and looks for strengths and moments of resilience. Her style is practical and respectful, with attention to everyday challenges like parenting, work stress, and relationship trouble.
Background and approach
In sessions she uses several approaches to fit the person and the problem. Narrative work helps separate people from the problems they face. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts and actions affect mood and behavior.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used when trauma memories are getting in the way of day-to-day life. Theresa aims to make sessions collaborative. She encourages people to set clear goals and to try small, doable steps between meetings.
She also supports work on issues such as intimacy, self-esteem, ADHD, caregiving stress, and career concerns. Her practice includes attention to less common issues like BDSM and kink, blended family dynamics, chronic illness, and aging-related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Her approach is steady and practical, meant to help people find clearer ways forward.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Teresa directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Teresa commonly draws on Narrative Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online sessions. Narrative Therapy treats the problems you face as separate from who you are and helps people rewrite the parts of their story that feel stuck. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so the person feels heard and understood while they set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and offers concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then recommend one or a blend of methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and nonverbal cues, while phone sessions can fit better into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers writing their thoughts. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
