Theresa Kasman

Theresa Kasman is a licensed mental health counselor with 15 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, and relationship struggles. She practices in New York and works in an open, nonjudgmental way to help clients clarify what they want from life and take practical steps toward change.

Theresa focuses on helping people with self-esteem and confidence, coping with life changes, and navigating difficult emotions like guilt and shame. She also addresses issues that often affect women, such as body image, self-love, and midlife transitions. Her approach centers on understanding each person's history and current experience so goals feel realistic and manageable.

In sessions she uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and client-centered methods to keep the work focused on each person’s needs. She also draws on existential perspectives to help people find meaning and direction when they face big life questions. This mix aims to balance practical problem-solving with deeper reflection.

Theresa often helps people sort through family of origin concerns, communication problems, and control issues that hold them back. She also supports those coping with caregiver stress, divorce and separation, and substance use challenges. Her work tends to emphasize clarity, concrete next steps, and building resilience.

People who choose her typically want a straightforward, compassionate guide while they make changes. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses. It can help people understand repeated relationship difficulties and build different ways of relating.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's experience and pace, with the therapist following the client's lead. This approach helps people feel heard while they decide what changes matter most to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Theresa will help clients weigh what feels most useful based on their goals, history, and preferences. She frames the process as collaborative, trying different ways of working until something fits.

Session options are not specified in the available profile, so please confirm current formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people continue work on issues like anxiety, self-esteem, and relationship patterns from whatever location works best for them, while the therapist and client decide together how to structure sessions for progress.
