Teresa Thompson
Life as a student can be stressful, especially when you find yourself impacted by academic or administration complications, or struggles outside of school.
As a therapist, I take a holistic approach in order to recognize all the complexities of who you are and your unique situation, and strive to provide a space where you feel supported and understood. Many of my clients identify as BIPOC and/or LGBTQ (and found me because they wanted a therapist who shares their identity), although I have worked with students from all walks of life.
I have a Masters of Social Work from CUNY Hunter and seven years of clinical experience with techniques such as psychodynamics, Motivational Interviewing, and CBT. These have helped me with students struggling with a variety of concerns - depression, self-esteem, family or relationship problems, and more.
Let's talk together about what's been on your mind and explore how to support you on your journey. I look forward to hearing from you!
