About Kirkpatrick Counseling Associates

Hi, I'm Teresa Kirkpatrick, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas with over 18 years of experience in Social Services and Mental Health. I provide virtual therapy for individuals and groups from all walks of life. At Kirkpatrick Counseling Associates, we believe that everyone has the ability to lead a happy and fulfilling life. Our philosophy is rooted in the belief that mental and emotional well-being are integral to overall health, and that therapy can be a powerful tool for achieving this balance. 

We offer a variety of counseling services to meet the unique needs of our clients, including individual therapy, couples counseling, and group therapy. We also offer specialized services for issues such as addiction, anger management, and grief and loss. Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with adults and youth facing a range of challenges—depression, anxiety, trauma, Bipolar Disorder, family and relationship issues, burnout, and more. I've also served survivors of domestic and sexual violence, advocated for clients in court settings, and worked in psychiatric emergency care as both an intake assessor and clinician.

As an experienced therapist we use a client-centered approach, working collaboratively with our clients to identify their goals and develop a customized treatment plan. Our approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), family systems theory, and psychoanalytic principles to support clients on their journey toward wellness.  We also place a strong emphasis on building a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship.
