Theresa Bradbury , PA Psychologist PS 006223 L

Theresa Bradbury is a Pennsylvania licensed psychologist with a long history of supporting children and families through emotional and behavioral challenges. She holds the credential PA Psychologist PS 006223 L - a Pennsylvania Licensed Psychologist - and brings more than two decades of clinical experience to her work.

Her early career included more than a decade on child and adolescent units of a psychiatric hospital, where she served as an educational consultant assessing young people with diagnoses such as ADD, ODD, Tourette's disorder, autism, intellectual disability, anorexia, depression, OCD, and other complex presentations. In that role she helped design individualized IEP and 504 plans to support students' transitions back to their home schools.

Theresa also spent many years in the public school system as a school psychologist, working twelve years in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and an additional five years after relocating to the West Coast. Over the years she has administered and interpreted hundreds of psychoeducational assessments, and her combined experience in medical and educational settings has given her a practical understanding of school processes from both educational and legal perspectives, along with expertise in developing and monitoring effective IEPs.

In private practice, Theresa has pursued advanced study in areas such as PTSD, anger management, depression, and ADHD in both children and adults. She remains attentive to the ways large-scale events shape everyday life - noting the impacts of the pandemic and current economic pressures - and welcomes inquiries from individuals and families seeking support during challenging times.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?

People often wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect with licensed professionals in the format that suits them best - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and everyday routines.

Licensed professionals and therapists generally offer the option to change providers if the fit is not right, allowing clients to seek the therapeutic relationship that works best for their needs.
