More about Terry
- 8 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I trained to become a spiritual life coach in 2002. It was a wonderful experience, but I felt I needed more education. I feel that incorporating the clinical skills of a mental health counselor into my training as a life coach is the perfect formula for supporting others traveling through this journey called life. I’ve worked with seriously mentally ill adults and adults with developmental disabilities. Working with different people has helped shape me as a therapist because people are unique and each experience and path to recovery is different, so I continue to hone my craft. I am trained in CBT, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness. CBT is the focus of my practice and a powerful tool because our thoughts become things. In other words, what we feel and think we deserve is usually what we focus on. My passion for helping others has shaped my practice and continues to motivate me to find creative ways to support others on their journeys to healing. I currently hold a Doctorate in Human Services and my goal is to help others live their best life.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
