Theresa Bradbury, PA Psychologist PS 006223 L

Theresa Bradbury is a Pennsylvania psychologist with 26 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage difficult emotions, everyday habits, and behaviors that get in the way of daily life. Theresa works with concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and parenting stress. Theresa spent over a decade working on child and adolescent psychiatric units. She has also worked as a school psychologist in Pittsburgh and elsewhere, giving her practical knowledge of how schools handle learning and behavior challenges. That background shaped her skill in developing individualized education plans and 504 accommodations for students returning to school. In private practice, Theresa has concentrated on PTSD, anger management, depression, and ADHD in both children and adults. She uses approaches that focus on thoughts and everyday habits alongside emotional awareness and behavior change. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented, with attention to what works day to day. Theresa has administered and interpreted many psychoeducational tests over the years. While in-person testing was paused during the pandemic, she continues to answer family questions about school progress and supports planning around educational needs. Theresa describes therapy as collaborative work. She helps people set realistic goals, practice new habits, and build skills to cope with life changes such as grief, divorce, caregiving strain, or job stress. Her experience spans clinical, educational, and hospital settings, which she draws on when helping clients navigate practical problems as well as emotional ones.

Approach-focused online therapy that fits your routine

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and habits that interfere with daily life.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand emotional responses in relationships and develop different ways of connecting and regulating feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Theresa will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and keep continuity during life changes. If you are considering online work, confirm the available session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online appointments can allow for shorter check-ins, easier scheduling around school or work, and steady follow-up on skills practiced between meetings.
