I met Dr. Bowman years ago prior to her own counseling firm and have followed her throughout the years. She pairs techniques with behavioral counseling concepts, affirmation, positive regard counseling along with self atonement and reward systems. I am no longer in the area, but for the years I was, she provided me with the tools to become more assertive in my life and in my relationships with others. To this very day, I use the techniques I learned from her during our sessions to continue to empower myself and strategically handle issues impacting my life for correct decision making.
I have Started seeing Dr Bowman for a month or so, and it has really started to help me navigate through my thought process and how to stay positive about life’s journey. She listens to my thoughts and experiences and assigns very helpful exercises that actually helps me in a longer run! Investing my time with her has been nothing less than useful and positive!
This therapist (Dr. Teressa Bowman) is not qualified to deal with trauma. I have solid records with The Women’s Center of Vienna that I in fact had therapy with Dr. Teressa Bowman. During sessions with Dr. Teressa Bowman at The Women’s Center (who now has started her own practice), she laughed at me in a description of my trauma and repeatedly berated me on how memory “is not reliable”. She did this in the context of couples counseling. She retraumatized me and caused more conflict in my relationship. In writing this review, Dr. Teressa Bowman has attempted to mislead the public saying that I am confused about who I got services from and that I do not have proof that she was indeed my counselor. In addition, I called the office to have them take down their response. I got a call back from Dr. Teressa Bowman who asked that I take down this post and showed no remorse for her actions then or now. She seems to care only about keeping her ratings up. I saw this therapist while she worked for The Women’s Center a few years ago. Clearly, she has not changed. A good therapist would have contacted me with remorse over their actions, would have tried to explain what they were thinking when they treated me so poorly, would have taken inventory and improved. Unfortunately, Dr. Teressa Bowman did none of those things. This leads me to believe that she likely continues to treat patients badly and attempt to cover up any negative reviews with her lies.
As a resident in counseling, Dr. Bowman and the VHH team have provided a guided experiences to support me in becoming a licensed therapist. I am truly blessed to be able to work with other therapist who share a like minded passion for helping and serving the minority in our communities.
Dr. Bowman is a phenomenal, experienced professional. As a young black woman, I feel that she provides a safe space to be heard. She provides not only empathy, but a plethora of tools for you to succeed and accomplish your goals. I’ve noticed great improvements in my life since beginning our sessions and I look forward to our weekly chats. Such a breath of fresh air! I highly recommend her services!
