Hi, I’m Theresa! Helping others has always been at the heart of what I do. With 20 years of experience in marriage and family therapy, I’ve dedicated my career to creating safe, inclusive spaces for healing and growth. My journey began at the University of Central Florida, where I studied Psychology and developed a passion for advocacy, working with organizations supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, military families, and women’s rights. I went on to earn my master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Nova Southeastern University, gaining hands-on experience with agencies like Women In Distress and Fort Lauderdale Psychiatric Hospital. These opportunities deepened my focus on areas such as domestic violence, parenting challenges, and reunification therapy. Life brought me to Spartanburg, SC, where I founded Anchoring Within in 2018 to provide compassionate, affirming therapy for individuals, couples, and families. Today, I continue to approach each client’s journey with empathy, understanding, and the belief that healing is always possible. When I’m not working, I’m likely spending time with loved ones, advocating for inclusivity, or enjoying the little joys in life. I look forward to supporting you on your path to growth and connection!
