We’re thrilled to introduce one of our compassionate therapists, Teresa DiTommaso-Ring, whose thoughtful and collaborative approach helps clients and families navigate life’s challenges with care and understanding. Drawing from both personal experience and a deep belief in the power of therapy, Teresa creates a space where clients feel heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful change. Get to know more about Teresa’s background, approach, and what inspires their work below.
What inspired you to become a therapist?
I was inspired to become a therapist because of my personal and family experience with therapy. I believe that serving others and their families through some of their most challenging times in life is a privilege, and one that should be treated with care, dignity, and compassion from start to finish.
How would you describe your approach to therapy?
My approach is collaborative and solution-focused. I often use CBT, DBT, Emotion-Focused, Family Systems, and Trauma-focused modalities to support clients and their families, but I also tailor each session to the individual or family’s specific needs.
Who do you enjoy working with most?
I especially enjoy working with pre-teens, teenagers, and their families who are navigating challenges with depression, anxiety, anger, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and overall family conflict and communication.
What can clients expect in their first session with you?
In a first session, clients can expect a safe, welcoming environment to share their story without judgment. I will review confidentiality and the general process of therapy, begin the assessment process, and work with each client to begin to identify their goals for therapy. My goal is to help clients feel comfortable and heard from the very beginning.
What do you hope clients take away from therapy with you?
I hope clients leave our sessions with feeling understood, having a greater awareness of themselves and their strengths, having new tools to practice facing their challenges, and having hope for their future, whatever they want it to be.
What’s something about you that might surprise people?
Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy traveling, walking with my dog, reading, and all things Formula 1!
