About Us

Teresa Kline, LPC

At the age of 35, I enrolled in college for the first time after experiencing a significant emotional healing on November 13, 1989. Before that day, I had not fully recognized how unresolved family experiences had impacted my heart, soul, and relationships. That healing experience on that day in 1989, led me to seek training to assist others who may feel emotionally stuck.

In the fall of 1990, I began my college journey and over the next ten years, I studied the academics of Counseling while also gaining valuable life lessons and insights. After completing my formal education in 2000, I have had many opportunities to work in the mental health field. Since 2011, I have had the privilege of being in private practice and value the opportunity to witness the transformation in clients over time.

As a teenager, I identified with Freudian perspectives on human behavior. However, by the time I completed my university studies, my understanding had expanded significantly. In private practice today, my primary approach as a Counselor is to connect with and understand each Client’s unique story and personality. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral insights with Solution-Focused techniques and best practices, tailoring each session to fit the client’s individual needs. In Grief Counseling, I focus on providing a compassionate space where healing unfolds naturally.

For Clients who choose to continue long-term, I incorporate mentoring and life coaching concepts to support long-term growth. 

A Safe Space Starts Here

Feel at home, feel heard, feel hopeful. Today is a good day to take the next step.

Personalized Counseling for Growth and Healing

Current Counseling services are available to individuals, couples, and teens. I believe that the person of the Counselor is an important dynamic in the process of helping others. Both personally, and professionally, I recognize that I am a work in progress-and forever will be. 

I would be honored to come alongside you as you take the next steps on your journey and in seeking to live your best quality of life–from the inside out. <Teresa Kline>
