I believe therapy is most effective when it feels like a collaborative partnership where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to grow. My approach is warm, compassionate, and practical, while also creating space for honest conversations and meaningful self-reflection. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Georgia, and I specialize in helping individuals understand their attachment styles and relationship patterns, particularly how past experiences in romantic relationships, family dynamics, and learned beliefs influence the way they connect with themselves and others. Whether you're navigating relationship anxiety, fear of abandonment, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or recurring patterns in dating and relationships, we'll work together to explore what may be contributing to these challenges. My goal is to help you move beyond simply recognizing your patterns to understanding where they come from and developing healthier ways of responding. Together, we'll work toward greater emotional awareness, stronger boundaries, improved communication, and more secure, fulfilling relationships with yourself and others.
Hello, my name is Teresa Carter and I go by Terri. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed by the state of Georgia, where I live and provide therapy across the state via telehealth. I primarily work with adults 18 and older experiencing anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, and relationship concerns. The modalities I most rely upon include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy-Mindfulness to help my clients progressively regain their life balance. My therapeutic approach varies according to the person, presenting concern, and goal and is always client-centered and interactive. The therapeutic approaches I most rely upon include Person Centered-Unconditional Positive Regard, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution Focused Therapy, and Trauma Informed Care. These modalities help process client concerns in a new light and steer the healing process. It has been my experience that my style and approach fit well with adults as moving through daily life can sometimes seem almost confounding, like how did life become so difficult! Major life transitions may be at the forefront. However, often there is no obvious explanation for the overwhelming feelings that can completely upset life balance and emotional wellbeing resulting in anxiety, depression, couple discord, and even substance use concerns. I work to help my clients gain tools to navigate these periods with confidence and skill. I am committed to establishing a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients built upon trust, rapport, and mutual respect. Therefore, my communication style is calm, personable, and direct. I would like my clients to feel safe sharing any information with me as I am skilled at listening and avoiding judgment. I decided upon a career change in 2006 from Information Systems to Mental Health Counseling earning my master's degree in 2010. Throughout my life I have been naturally attracted to human service, finding nothing more gratifying than helping others. I like to say of my career change, I used to make money, now I make a difference!‚ Having the opportunity to navigate my client's positive therapeutic journey and to witness their life balance restored is the reason. My approach to goal setting is to work with my client to clearly define what we hope to accomplish through this process. Establishing trust, rapport, and comfort with the therapeutic process leads to literally setting goals with frequent check-ins to measure progress. During our first session clients are asked to share basic background information about themselves to help me conceptualize presenting concerns. The majority of our first session will be spent processing how clients are feeling and their reason for seeking therapy at this time. The first session is about beginning a connection and deciding if and how to proceed. If I feel we are a good match, I ask my clients if they feel comfortable in proceeding with me as well.
I have been practicing therapy since 2019 and hold an LPC. I typically work with couples who are facing communication challenges and broken trust along with helping them reconnect. I work with individuals and help them to gain healthy coping skills to deal with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.

My grandmother used to say, "Little by little, a bird makes its nest." With this first step to seek therapy, you are one step closer to a more authentic and fulfilling you.
My experience as a therapist has been filled with working in group homes, school settings, office settings, and community settings with children, adolescents, and adults. I understand that overcoming mental health issues is a collaboration and not a one-sided interaction. My extensive work with clients is comprised of managing anxiety disorders, depression disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and numerous other personality and mood disorders. My therapeutic approach includes person-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, strength-based therapy, and reality therapy. I believe that everyone’s emotional, mental, and physical health matters. As an eclectic therapist, striking a balance between working with evidence-based theories and individual preferences is supremely important. I believe in the significance of helping others feel inner peace and find purpose in life. I can successfully work with many individuals. The population that I work best with are people that are open to change and challenging themselves. Although I don't usually assign homework, I often try to individualize my approach to the person I'm helping. I believe keeping an open mind and ear are important for both sides of the therapeutic interaction. I maintain that the therapeutic process is helped when those I aid are able to understand that perfection is not the objective, but that aiming toward being a more well-rounded individual is the goal. My communication style is direct and supportive. I believe that motivating, coaching, and educating my clients is essential to helping them progress. Astute, tolerant, observation and genuine listening help me find creative options for those I support. I explain my expectations for communication, attendance, client privileges, and confidentiality in the initial session.
