Terriee has been the support I have always looked for in a therapist. She has empowered me, challenged me, encouraged me and helped me build my tool box so I am confident in my healing. I often reflect on our sessions and content Terriee shares with me and feel she is always one step ahead of me, guiding me as I explore sobriety, trauma and loving myself. I couldn’t be more appreciative or thankful for her. Terriee is the reason I tell everyone to try the BetterHelp app! Her genuine care and direct approach has been key for me!

I have been seeing Terriee for almost 2 1/2 years. Not only does she help me get to the root of the main reason why I wanted to get therapy, she’s also been there for some pretty serious upsets in my life.

When I first sought help from Better Help, Terriee was "assigned" as my therapist and I could not be more pleased with her sessions. She is compassionate, thoughtful and very talented as a therapist. I was struggling with cannabis abuse and am now in remission, all due to her help. I could not recommend her more highly.

Terrie has helped me remember who I am in the year that I’ve been talking to her in weekly sessions. I’ve gone from someone dealing with suicidal thoughts and rage to someone who is more peaceful and able to identify triggers that put me in a bad mental space. I was very skeptical of therapy. It didn’t work for me before. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done, showing up for myself day after day. But I really do feel the difference and so does my family.

Terriee has been fantastic, in the short time that we have been having sessions I feel very comfortable discussing my feelings and troubles with her. Our sessions are a 100% judgment-free zone, I feel heard, that my perspective is validated, and she is very gracious and kind when asking me about why/why I feel a certain way and guiding me towards the source and potential resolution of my feelings.
