Terri Gossett, LPC

Terri Gossett, LPC, helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions. She works with concerns like trauma and abuse, self-esteem problems, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and the strain of life transitions. Terri writes treatment plans to match each person’s needs and focuses on clear, practical steps people can use between sessions.

She brings 15 years of experience in Texas and has worked with adults across many stages of life. Her style is warm and interactive. She offers a respectful, nonjudgmental space and avoids stigmatizing labels when talking about struggles.

Terri uses several well-known therapeutic approaches and adapts them to the person in front of her. Conversations are collaborative and goal-oriented, and she works to help people notice thoughts and everyday habits that get in the way. Sessions often include practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and to build new routines.

Clients can expect a mix of talking, skills practice, and mindful exercises when appropriate. Terri tailors pacing and focus to what each person needs and what feels doable. The overall aim is to help people feel more in control of daily life and better able to face challenges.

She encourages anyone who feels stuck to take a small next step toward change. That step can be an initial meeting to talk about concerns and to set a clear plan for moving forward.

Approaches that target thoughts and everyday habits

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and feeling stuck in old patterns.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace. This approach supports people who need a respectful space to talk through painful experiences and to build confidence.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches specific tools to identify and change thinking patterns and routines that feed anxiety, depression, or addictive behavior. It often includes homework and practical skill practice to change everyday habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Terri will work together with each person to decide which tools and therapies fit their goals, needs, and preferences. The plan can shift as needs change so work stays useful and manageable.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling, shorter check-ins when needed, and fitting sessions into a busy day.
