About Silver Tech Savvy

We started this because shame shouldn't stand between you and help.

A psychology degree, a Master's in Cybersecurity, and the realization that families needed both at once.

Teresa Kearl, founder of Silver Tech Savvy.

Why one person, with two very different degrees

Teresa Kearl has a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's degree in Cybersecurity & Information Assurance. Most tech-support companies have neither. Silver Tech Savvy exists because she noticed a gap between the two: families needed personalized training to protect their digital lives, and almost nothing available to them combined real technical depth with the patience to actually teach it.

Her work today spans securing the accounts and devices of elderly clients, training people in anti-fraud techniques, helping small businesses adopt cyber-safe practices, and conducting HIPAA compliance security evaluations for medical clinics. If you're facing a cybersecurity problem — personal, family, or small business — that range of experience means there's a good chance she's already solved something similar.

Every session starts the same way: no jargon, no assumptions about what you already know, and no rush to finish. You're not expected to keep up — Teresa adjusts to you.

Why psychology + cybersecurity

The two fields solve the same problem from different sides.

Scams and hacks aren't just technical failures. They're moments of fear, confusion, and self-blame — and that combination changes how help needs to be delivered.

We understand the fear

Clinical training means our team recognizes panic, shame, and shutdown — and knows how to keep a conversation calm and productive instead of overwhelming.

We fix the real problem

Graduate-level cybersecurity training means the fix isn't just emotional reassurance — your accounts, devices, and finances are actually secured, correctly.

We build lasting confidence

The goal isn't dependency. Every visit is designed to leave you more capable than before — not more reliant on us.
