About Teddi
Teddi Plummer is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in California with nine years of clinical experience. She offers a supportive, encouraging approach and respects the role faith or spirituality can play in a person’s healing process. She works with adults on common and complex concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, and parenting challenges.
She also helps people coping with grief, sleep problems, eating issues, anger, career strain, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical tools and steady encouragement rather than jargon. Her background includes crisis work in emergency room settings and work with people experiencing suicidal thoughts, severe mood disorders, and co-occurring substance or behavioral addictions. She has experience facilitating groups for anger management, parenting, and addiction recovery.
She is a certified SMART Recovery facilitator and a certified Nurturing Parenting facilitator. Teddi uses a mix of evidence-based approaches and tailors them to each person. That can include acceptance and commitment strategies, cognitive tools, mindfulness practices, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy.
She aims to match techniques to what a person needs and prefers. Outside clinical work she has years of faith-based teaching and volunteer counseling experience with children, youth, and adults. That background informs her respect for diverse beliefs while centering the client’s goals and strengths.

Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and parenting challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and building concrete skills to change mood and behavior, helpful for depression, sleep problems, and many daily struggles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness and can help when emotions feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist listens to your goals and preferences and combines methods that fit your situation. This collaborative planning makes it easier to try strategies that feel relevant and realistic.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation and shared visual tools. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can work for brief check-ins, skill practice, or fitting a session into a busy day. These options make it possible to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
