Teresa Solano
A calm, practical counsellor for everyday struggles
About Teresa
Teresa Solano offers a calm space for people to talk without judgement. She is a counsellor with NCPS and has worked in the field for 10 years. Teresa provides focused 50 minute sessions where the person can make sense of what is happening to them.
Teresa listens to the story people bring and helps them untangle confusing thoughts and feelings. She uses clear, straightforward language and aims to make sessions feel like a steady conversation rather than a lecture.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and grounded in everyday concerns. Her work often covers relationship issues, trauma and abuse, and problems with self-esteem. She also helps people coping with life changes, stress, anxiety, grief, intimacy-related issues, career questions and compassion fatigue.
Additional focus areas include multicultural concerns, non-monogamous relationships and ageing and geriatric issues. Teresa draws on Client-Centred Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, combining a warm listening style with practical steps to try between meetings. She speaks English and Spanish and carries out work in the United Kingdom.
Sessions can be by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. People who prefer a calm, listening approach and straightforward practical ideas tend to find her helpful. The first meeting is used to understand what matters most and to decide together what to focus on next.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person without judgement. In practice this means sessions centre on the person’s experience, with the counsellor reflecting what they hear and helping clarify feelings and priorities. It can help when someone needs space to talk through strong emotions or make sense of a difficult situation.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, feelings and actions. It often uses short exercises and small experiments to try between sessions, which can help reduce anxiety, manage stress or change unhelpful patterns. CBT is practical and goal-focused, making it easy to use in online appointments.
Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The counsellor will work with the person to choose methods that suit their needs, goals and preferences. That may mean mixing listening-based work with CBT-style tasks so the plan fits the individual's life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video works well for a face-to-face feel, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging suits brief updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and daily routines.
