Theresa Kloh

Theresa Kloh

Therapist

Virtual • Oklahoma


I was born and raised in Chicago, and my early years were shaped by challenges that taught me resilience, empathy, and the importance of being truly heard. Those experiences didn’t define me, but they deeply influenced my desire to help others express their feelings, identify their emotions, and process their pain with dignity.

With over 14+ years of counseling experience, I bring loyalty, compassion, and a steady presence to every session. I believe in creating a non‐judgment zone where people can show up exactly as they are. My values guide the way I care for clients — with grace, integrity, and a genuine love for people. My eclectic approach allows me to use CBT, behavioral techniques, and other modalities to meet each person’s unique needs.

Therapist

I believe healing begins when people feel heard, understood, and accepted. My goal is to provide a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment where you can openly share your experiences at your own pace. I understand that seeking therapy takes courage, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you during that journey.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, grief, relationship concerns, and life transitions. I believe emotional wellness is about more than reducing symptoms—it’s about restoring balance, building resilience, and creating a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.
