People who come to her can expect practical planning alongside emotional support. She focuses on steps that fit daily life and on helping people regain a sense of control over difficult situations. Terri encourages anyone ready to make changes to take the next step toward feeling better.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It uses values and small committed actions to guide change, which can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It often involves short experiments and homework that build different habits for handling worry and low mood.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and uses empathetic listening to make space for insight and healing. This style supports people who need a respectful, steady relationship while they work through hard issues.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will adjust the plan over time based on what helps most.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow more consistent check-ins between appointments. Some people also find shorter or phone-based check-ins useful when schedules are tight, while others prefer longer video discussions to practice skills in the moment.
