About Terry
Terry Hasenzahl is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 25 years of clinical experience, licensed in Missouri and Nevada. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, self-esteem concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and family of origin issues. Her practice also covers parenting strain, career stress, bipolar and depressive symptoms, ADHD, and a range of life transitions.
Terry approaches work in a person-centered way that focuses on individual strengths. Sessions typically include clear, practical skills training and conversations that help people name what is getting in the way. She draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and on dialectical behavior therapy for emotion regulation and coping skills.
Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing are part of her toolkit. These methods are used to increase present-moment awareness and to help people find internal motivation for change. Narrative therapy ideas are sometimes woven in to help people reframe difficult stories from the past.
In sessions she provides straightforward psychoeducation and shows how skills apply to everyday life. That can mean working on sleep routines, setting boundaries, reducing substance use, or managing anger in relationships. Work may also focus on repairing intimacy and addressing patterns rooted in the family someone grew up in.
Terry has two decades of experience supporting adults through grief, care-giver stress, blended family challenges, and midlife transitions. She practices in Missouri and offers therapy in English. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session options before booking.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a collaborative relationship, helping people feel understood and work toward clearer goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses structured exercises and homework to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be practiced between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, useful for anxiety, anger, and relationship strain.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. Terry will review a person's needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest CBT, DBT, or person-centered methods as a team decision. The therapist and client check in about what is helping and adjust the plan together.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people practice new skills in their regular routines and bring real-life situations into session conversations.
