About Teresa Johnston

Teresa Johnston is a person-centred counsellor and qualified mindfulness teacher practising in the United Kingdom. With three years of experience working in healthcare and therapeutic settings, she supports people through times of change, loss, and emotional overwhelm while offering a calm, compassionate space where individuals can be fully heard without pressure or expectation.

Her work commonly addresses stress and burnout, anxiety and emotional dysregulation, relationship challenges and communication difficulties, grief and bereavement, low self-esteem, and life transitions such as career shifts or health changes. Teresa adopts a collaborative, non-prescriptive way of working - helping people make sense of what has been difficult and supporting them to move toward a life that feels more aligned with their values and sense of self.

Teresa holds a Professional Diploma in Counselling and is currently completing a Master’s degree in Psychology at the University of Stirling. She is a qualified mindfulness teacher and a registered member of COSCA and BACP. BACP is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and COSCA is the professional body for counselling and psychotherapy in Scotland; membership indicates adherence to professional ethical frameworks and practice standards.

Approaching therapy from a person-centred perspective combined with mindfulness-based methods, she aims to work gently and collaboratively, recognising that change is a personal process. Teresa is accepting new clients and is available to work with people nationally and internationally.

Could Remote Therapy Work for You?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can genuinely help. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect with therapists in the way that feels most comfortable, choosing from video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments.

Therapists offering online work are licensed professionals, and people may switch to a different therapist at any time if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many, remote therapy provides an accessible, adaptable route to professional support while retaining the therapeutic elements that make in-person work effective.
