About Theresa
Theresa Cadd is a counsellor based in Swansea, South Wales, who draws on five years of experience to support people through hard times. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and works from an integrative perspective that adapts to each person's needs. Theresa aims to offer a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what matters to them.
Her practice combines person-centred listening with structured tools from cognitive behavioural therapy.
Background and approach
Sessions often include practical techniques such as thought records and mindfulness exercises. Theresa uses these alongside psychodynamic ideas to help people notice patterns that affect their everyday life. Theresa has worked with a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and family difficulties, addiction, trauma and abuse, and issues around identity and intimacy.
She also pays attention to related problems such as sleep, eating, anger, and self-esteem. Earlier in her career she gained experience at MIND and in educational settings, which helped her support diverse people with practical coping and self-development. That background informs how she tailors sessions for different situations.
Theresa offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Sessions operate through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Approaches online and what they involve
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist reflects what matters to you so you can find your own solutions and build self-trust. This approach suits people who want a collaborative, empathetic space to make sense of feelings.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) uses structured exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It often includes practical tools like thought records, behavioural experiments and simple mindfulness practices to reduce anxiety, depression and stress symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Theresa will explore your needs, goals and preferences and then pick methods together that feel helpful. That collaborative process can shift over time as priorities change.
Online sessions offer flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing reflection, or a lower-pressure way to communicate between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
