Teresa Fisher, a warm, collaborative, and active therapist, offers her expertise to help adults navigate life transitions, build relationships, and develop effective tools for managing stress. With a commitment to creating an identity-affirming space, Teresa provides in-person sessions in Asheville, NC, and virtual sessions in MA and NC. Her path to becoming a therapist was shaped by a lifelong passion for listening, asking questions, and fostering meaningful connections. Teresa's approach is rooted in counseling psychology, allowing her to integrate identity exploration and social justice as foundational elements for healing, growth, and joy.Working with Teresa involves a shared journey, emphasizing that therapy is most effective when both therapist and client actively engage in curiosity, reflection, and truth-telling. Clients appreciate Teresa's active engagement, curiosity, and ability to ask thought-provoking questions, creating an atmosphere where they feel heard and not judged.
Teresa's core values, including respect, belief in human potential for change, and the idea that collective thriving leads to individual thriving, shape her therapeutic approach. Her client-centered approach involves getting to know clients before exploring actions that empower them to navigate challenges, build skills, and strengthen their sense of self.Teresa incorporates evidence-based treatments such as ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) and EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) for those seeking specific therapeutic modalities. ACT involves mindful awareness, emotional identification, and countering unhelpful thinking, while EMDR is a trauma-informed approach to learning and adapting after traumatic experiences. Teresa's specialties include anxiety and panic disorders, depression, general relationship challenges, life transitions, personal growth, and self-esteem. Clients can expect a therapeutic journey filled with moments of laughter, celebration of strengths, and a focus on empowerment to address mental health symptoms and enhance relationships.This provider is associated with Alma.About AlmaWe’re on a mission to simplify access to high-quality, affordable mental health care.
