About Terri

Terri Gossett is an LPC based in Texas who brings 15 years of clinical experience to her practice. She works with people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, compassion fatigue, career difficulties, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

Her background also includes support for concerns such as abandonment, blended family challenges, body image, commitment and control issues, divorce and separation, domestic violence, substance use, family-of-origin problems, guilt and shame, HIV/AIDS, infidelity, and loneliness. Her manner is warm and interactive, emphasizing respect, sensitivity, and compassion while avoiding stigmatizing labels.

Terri blends elements of cognitive behavioral methods, humanistic and rational-emotive principles, and other evidence-informed techniques to create individualized care. She adapts conversations and treatment plans to fit each person's needs and goals, and uses motivational and mindfulness-based elements when helpful.

Seeking change can feel difficult, and Terri frames therapy as a collaborative process that supports empowerment and practical progress. She aims to help people build skills, increase self-understanding, and move toward a more satisfying life.

Therapeutic approaches and online flexibility

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify their values and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action toward meaningful goals; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by using practical exercises and skill-building to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and problematic habits. Motivational Interviewing focuses on strengthening a person's own motivation and commitment to change by exploring ambivalence and reinforcing personal reasons for change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Terri approaches treatment collaboratively, listening to each person's goals and preferences and adjusting methods over time to match what helps most in real life.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow ongoing contact between appointments when appropriate, and support consistent progress from wherever a person is located in Texas.
