Tess Gibbs

Tess Gibbs is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with five years of clinical experience. She helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low in confidence, or stuck after life changes. Her approach is grounded in respect, sensitivity, and straightforward support.

She focuses on everyday concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and self-esteem. Tess also works with people facing life transitions and challenges finding purpose or connection. She uses clear conversations and practical steps to address what matters most to each person.

In sessions she adapts the plan to the individual's needs and goals. That could mean talking through thought patterns, practicing new ways of coping, or trying small behavior changes. The emphasis is on what works in day-to-day life rather than jargon or one-size-fits-all techniques.

Tess aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can name what’s hard and try different ways forward. She encourages small, manageable steps toward greater confidence and emotional balance. Taking the first step is often the hardest, and she offers steady support through that process.

Her style blends warm listening with practical tools drawn from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral ideas. People who want clear, compassionate guidance through stress, relationship trouble, life transitions, or low mood may find her approach helpful.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Tess uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral ideas to guide sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely, understanding each person’s perspective, and shaping conversations around their needs. This approach helps when someone needs emotional support, validation, and a space to sort out feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small behavior changes to test different outcomes. CBT is often practical for anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tess collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She will adjust the plan as progress is made and as needs change.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can reduce commute time and make it simpler to keep regular appointments. The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking to ensure they fit your routine and needs.
