Meet Tera

Painful experiences and emotions left unacknowledged reside in our bodies. Unknowingly, they can be triggered, and create both physical and mental health concerns. Psychotherapy assists in identifying the root cause of emotions and confusing reactions. Regardless of your past, there is always hope to improve your overall physical and emotional health.

My goal is to partner with clients to work towards the rich and meaningful life they desire. Together we will identify parts of you that are emotionally triggered, work to heal and release the role of unwanted experiences, and build a new relationship with yourself.

My Background

Through my experiences in Juvenile Probation and as a Victim’s Advocate for The District Attorney’s Office, my passion to help others grew into a desire to provide Psychotherapy. I completed a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology at John F. Kennedy University and am currently in the process of pursuing a license in Marriage and Family Therapy.

Areas of Focus

I focus on; Anxiety, Depression, Co-Dependency, Relationships, Life Transitions, Eating Disorders, Life Balance, Mindfulness, Creating New Narratives and IFS parts work.
