About Teresa
LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Wisconsin with five years of experience. Teresa Buss focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, depression, addictions, LGBT concerns, relationship and family issues, and related areas. She works with people who want practical ways to change how they feel and behave.
Teresa uses a bottom-up approach that draws on body awareness, breath work, and image making to support new habits. She also uses Attachment-Based, Client-Centered, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative approaches to help people understand patterns and reshape their responses. Sessions center on understanding the person first and working toward realistic goals together.
Her background includes work with youth and with women in addictions recovery, and she has personal experience with PTSD that informs her interest in trauma work. She identifies as non-binary and is an LGBTQIA+ ally. Teresa emphasizes learning each person’s perspective before suggesting steps forward.
In sessions she helps people name what is happening and test small changes. That can mean practicing breath techniques, telling or reframing a story about an event, or using creative image work to notice new patterns. She uses collaborative treatment planning and motivational strategies to keep progress moving.
People who come for help with grief, sleep, parenting stress, anger, bipolar concerns, ADHD, or compassion fatigue will find approaches that focus on emotion regulation and building new habits. Teresa treats diagnosis as information, not a definition, and supports people in making practical changes over time.

How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and how early connections shape current reactions. Online sessions can use discussion and reflective exercises to identify attachment patterns and practice new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s experience and priorities; the therapist follows the person’s lead and supports their goals through listening and collaborative planning. Mindfulness Therapy uses breath awareness and attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation; these techniques can be taught and practiced during remote sessions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Teresa will help figure out which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the plan as progress is made. The process is collaborative and revisited as goals change. The biography does not list which session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone practice breath work or grounding in a familiar routine and try narrative or image-based exercises between meetings.Sheet 3
