Theresa Yuhas, MSW(She/Her/Hers)

Theresa Yuhas is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Massachusetts and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida. She currently works as a telehealth therapist at Northeast Family Services, where she supports children, teens, families, and adults. Theresa helps clients navigate emotional challenges such as anxiety and depression, develop effective coping skills, and strengthen relationships, while also connecting them with resources that support growth and well-being in daily life.

Before transitioning into her current role, Theresa spent several years working as a school social worker. In that setting, she provided individual and group therapy to students addressing social, emotional, and academic challenges, and collaborated closely with families to build coping strategies, strengthen family relationships, and access community resources.

Theresa uses a variety of evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual’s needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Strength-Based Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Play Therapy. She takes a holistic approach to care, considering not only the individual, but also the family, school, and community systems that influence overall well-being. This perspective allows her to help clients build practical skills, improve emotional regulation, and create meaningful, lasting change.

She strives to create a warm, collaborative, and supportive therapeutic environment that values diversity and inclusivity, where children, teens, and adults feel seen, heard, and respected for who they are. Theresa also believes that humor has an important place in therapy because while the work can be serious, it can still be human and enjoyable. She is passionate about supporting clients by honoring their strengths, seeing the whole picture, and offering encouragement, insight, and the occasional laugh along the way.
