About Teresa Lauer
Thank you so much for take a moment to read more about me. My name is Teresa Lauer; I'm a licensed therapist and coach in private practice, with clients across the globe. I offer you expertise gained over 14,000 client hours since graduating with a Masters in Counseling Psychology from the University of San Francisco.
As a therapist trained in Solutions Focused Brief Therapy, my goal is to provide you with the strategies and support you need to live the life you feel you were meant to live. And, while I believe cognitive insight is very important to our growth - I recognize the importance of behavioral patterns as well: Changing things up; doing things a little differently can produce tremendous results!
How Can I Be of Help to You?
Do you find yourself wondering why love just doesn't "happen" for you? Or why you feel incredibly alone, even though you're in a relationship? Do you feel as if there must be something more - you're just not sure what that "more" is? Selecting a partner who will nurture you and soothe the wounds that you (and that we all) bring to your relationship is critical to your happiness. I help cultivate your relationships; those that you share with your intimate partner, those that you nurture within your family and those that bring you joy socially.
The development of those relationships begin, though, with the relationship you have with yourself in defining who you are, what you have to bring to a relationship and most importantly, whom you choose to invite into your life to share your highest and best self. Self-actualization, defined as "the realization or fulfillment of one's talents and potentialities, especially considered as a drive or need present in everyone" is the foundation for all your relationships and where I center much of my work. For many, this includes meditation and stress reduction strategies in order to gain true clarity and focus into what you want from life.
Establishing the foundation for a long, successful and incredibly romantic long-term relationship is my goal for you, from dating to pre-marital coaching to the beginning years of marriage; a process that starts with the question we must all ask: "What kind of partner am I?"
One critical piece to your long-term relationship success (but almost never addressed by most couples) is the differing views you and your partner may have towards money: how it should be earned, spent and saved, causing pain and a feeling of disconnect and loneliness within the relationship. For this reason, I specialize in Financial Behavior, an area of therapy and coaching in which we examine the internal messages and scripts that affect your very real day-to-day level of happiness and feelings of financial security. The insight both of you gain into your individual feelings about money and what it means to you personally, is incredibly empowering and can significantly increase your odds for greater intimacy and financial success in your relationship.
Finally, if you're a healing professional, anxious to create a thriving practice, I offer training and consulting to help you create a six figure therapy practice.
On a personal note: I have been married to my best friend and husband Phil for over three decades. We've shared a tremendous life together full of adventure, romance and incredible challenges that we've been able to weather together, making us much stronger and much more connected and intimate than had we chosen others.
