About Terrayce

Dr. Terrayce Hunter brings 26 years of clinical practice as a California-licensed psychologist (CA Psychologist 17120) to her work with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, mood challenges, and family concerns.

Background and approach

She combines psychological testing expertise with a focus on life-stage transitions, grief, and caregiving to clarify patterns and identify practical steps forward. Her background includes work with children, teens, and adults, and a particular interest in aging and geriatric issues and the losses that can accompany later-life changes.

In sessions she emphasizes motivational inquiry and skills development to help clients recognize strengths and build capacities for change. Dr.

Hunter draws on cognitive and relational perspectives to address issues such as trauma, depression, parenting challenges, ADHD, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and relationship or family problems. Her practice aims to translate assessment findings into individualized strategies so clients can pursue clearer goals and greater resilience in daily life.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Dr. Hunter commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaching practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and compulsive behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy explores interpersonal patterns and relational needs to help clients improve connection, reduce isolation, and address family or attachment-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to clarify goals, review assessment findings when relevant, and adapt methods to match personal preferences and life circumstances so the work feels purposeful and attainable.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling, caregiving responsibilities, and mobility limits. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity across life transitions, engage in regular skill practice between meetings, and access care from home or other convenient locations.
