Theresa Revans-McMenimon

Theresa Revans-McMenimon is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in New York who helps people manage relationship strain and life transitions. She focuses on clear communication, honest self-reflection, and practical steps people can take to improve daily interactions. Her style is straightforward and results-oriented, aimed at helping clients feel more understood and better able to handle conflict and change.

Theresa draws on 18 years of clinical work supporting people with stress, anxiety, depression, and issues tied to relationships and parenting. She has experience with blended-family dynamics, divorce and separation, and challenges that come with midlife and career transitions. She also works with concerns such as ADHD, addictions, intimacy-related issues, and money or workplace problems.

Her approach emphasizes listening first, then shaping goals together. Theresa uses client-centered methods to follow each person’s priorities, motivational interviewing to support change, and narrative and solution-focused techniques to reshape unhelpful stories and build small practical steps. Sessions often center on improving communication and identifying concrete next moves.

Theresa developed a Transition Boot Camp program and has provided guidance on preparing for college and career changes. She also completed family specialist training with the Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (LEND) program through the Westchester Institute for Human Development and New York Medical College.

She notes that some referrals may be redirected when another provider would better match a person’s needs. To begin, readers should use the site’s Start Therapy flow to match and schedule according to therapist availability.

How her approaches guide online work

Theresa uses client-centered therapy to follow each person’s priorities. This approach means sessions start with listening to what matters most and shaping goals around the client’s values and needs. It can help with relationship worries, stress, and decisions during life changes.

She also uses motivational interviewing to support change by helping people resolve mixed feelings and find their own reasons to take small steps. That method is useful for goals like reducing harmful habits, improving communication, or moving through a separation. Narrative therapy is used to look at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships, and to rewrite those stories in a more helpful way.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Theresa will collaborate with each client to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts techniques as progress is made. The process aims to be practical and tailored rather than one-size-fits-all.

Confirm the therapist’s current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins between larger steps in life. It also lets people continue work during transitions or when coordinating around work and family commitments.
