CARE PHILOSOPHY
Real work, real tools — not a rigid program
Tess believes therapy has to be built around the person in front of her — never a one-size-fits-all protocol. Her work is grounded in the collaborative relationship between client and clinician, because she’s seen how trust makes it possible for clients to be more vulnerable and to carry what they learn in session into daily life.
From that foundation, Tess draws on her extensive training — CBT, the Gottman Method, structural family therapy, and systems theory — to meet each client’s specific clinical needs. Whether you’re working through anxiety, a struggling relationship, or a painful dynamic like control or gaslighting, she builds rapport first and tailors the path forward from there.
