Her approach aims to help clients build on what already works while exploring new ways to meet their goals.

Therapeutic approaches that guide online care

Terri draws from evidence-informed approaches to shape online sessions that meet each client's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; it is often used for mood, motivation, and confidence concerns and for practical coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills, which can be useful for managing intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship challenges. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and connection in couples, offering concrete tools to navigate conflict and strengthen intimacy.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Terri collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor work to individual needs.

Online therapy with Terri is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options allow clients to engage in therapy from different settings and schedules, making it easier to prioritize consistent work toward relationships, family concerns, and personal growth.
