Theresa (Dr. T) is a social psychologist, certified Mind-Body Skills facilitator, and qualified Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) teacher. Her work focuses on the parts of being human that we all share: living in a body, navigating stress, aging (if we’re lucky), and facing grief, loss, and change. Dr. T blends psychology, mindfulness, and lived experience to help people develop greater self-awareness and compassion. Rather than presenting mindfulness as a quick fix, she teaches practical ways to pause, notice what’s happening, and respond with more clarity and care.

Theresa captured Mary Oliver's magic in this poem & it has an incredible way of making you stop & see the world around you. My heart stops at the iconic lines about what you plan to do with your one wild & precious life. ✨️

This is a good complement to other meditations that I find helpful. I appreciate that it encourages us to focus on what is most drawing our attention during the practice. I expect to return to this meditation frequently. Thank you!
