About Theresa
Theresa Bradbury is a Pennsylvania licensed psychologist with over 26 years of clinical experience. She uses emotionally-focused approaches alongside practical therapies to help people manage strong feelings and daily challenges. Theresa aims for straightforward, problem-focused work that helps people feel steadier in their lives.
She has extensive experience in hospitals and schools where she supported children with behavioral and learning difficulties. That work involved testing, educational planning, and coordinating return-to-school plans for students with varied diagnoses.
Background and approach
Her background gives her a clear understanding of how medical and educational systems operate and what helps in school settings. In independent practice, Theresa has continued to focus on trauma, anger, depression, and attention difficulties in both children and adults. She also helps people facing grief, stress, relationship strain, parenting pressure, career shifts, and addiction-related concerns.
Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to match each person's needs. Theresa uses standard assessment tools and has administered many psychoeducational tests over the years. She can explain testing results and how they relate to school planning and daily supports.
Her experience includes crafting Individualized Education Program (IEP) and 504 plans for students returning to school. Theresa recognizes that life changes and current stressors, like the pandemic and financial strain, can make it harder to cope. She works with people who want clear steps, practical strategies, and steady support as they work toward better day-to-day functioning.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on noticing and naming emotions in the moment to change how someone responds to pain and relational stress. EFT can help people who feel stuck in cycles of strong emotions or who struggle with closeness and emotional distance.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills to notice thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then take values-based actions. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and when stress gets in the way of everyday goals.
Theresa treats the choice of approach as a joint decision. She will talk with each person about goals, past efforts, and what feels most helpful, then try methods that match those needs. Adjustments are made as progress and preferences become clearer.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues, phone calls work with lower bandwidth, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep continuity during life transitions.
