How her approaches guide online work

Terri commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on values and actions that matter. CBT looks at thinking patterns and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes a respectful, empathetic stance and listening closely to each person's experience. Together these approaches aim to help people set achievable goals and build skills that fit their daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Terri works collaboratively to see what fits a person's needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts methods as progress is made. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay useful and relevant.
