As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Terri has dedicated her career to empowering teens, families, and individuals on their journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

Terri's therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based methodologies, with a particular focus on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

Through her guidance, clients learn to become self-aware, balance their thinking, overcome fears, manage emotions, and develop resilience in the face of distress.

Terri's academic background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Arizona State University and a Master of Counseling from the University of Phoenix. This solid educational foundation, combined with her years of practical experience, allows her to offer a comprehensive and nuanced approach to mental health care.

Beyond her professional achievements, Terri's personal experiences have shaped her approach to therapy. As a mother of two adult daughters, she understands the importance of maintaining balance in life. Her love for travel has broadened her perspective, reinforcing her belief in the beauty and diversity of human experiences. Terri's daily practice of mindfulness not only enhances her personal life but also informs her therapeutic techniques, encouraging clients to live more deeply and intentionally.

While Terri is not currently accepting new clients, her influence extends beyond individual therapy sessions. As the founder of Gilbert Counselors, she has created a practice that reflects her values and approach to mental health care. Her leadership ensures that the practice maintains high standards of care and continues to offer valuable services to the community, including DBT skills groups for both teens and adults.
