About Terry

Terry Hasenzahl brings 25 years of clinical experience as an LMFT to clients seeking help with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, addiction, grief, and a wide range of life challenges.

Background and approach

She practices with a warm, engaging manner and emphasizes collaborative work so clients can explore strengths, develop new coping skills, and pursue more authentic, satisfying lives. Terry aims to create a nonjudgmental environment where people can address painful memories, manage mood symptoms, and tackle practical issues like sleep, parenting, career strain, or compassion fatigue.

Her therapeutic practice weaves together client-centered care with evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior interventions, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and narrative approaches. Terry’s background in family systems informs how she helps people understand relational patterns and work toward healthier interactions.

Licensed as an LMFT in Missouri and Nevada, she integrates psychoeducation with individualized interventions to support progress at a pace that fits each person’s goals and circumstances.

Therapeutic approaches for online growth and coping

Many clients find cognitive behavioral techniques useful for identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change behaviors. Client-centered therapy provides a respectful, empathetic frame in which clients lead the pace and focus of sessions while the therapist offers support and validation. Dialectical behavior therapy brings practical tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can be helpful when strong emotions or relationship conflicts interfere with daily life.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Terry will work together with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals, blending methods as appropriate so therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single model on every situation.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats let people connect from home or during busy schedules, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and select the communication style that best supports their progress.
