About Terri
Terri Hipps is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 23 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and coping with life changes. Terri focuses on practical steps people can use right away to manage strong feelings and daily pressures.
She draws on client-centered methods to shape conversations around what matters to each person. That means sessions start with the individual's concerns and goals, then move toward small, workable changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and test different responses in real life.
Terri also uses solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and track progress between sessions. For trauma and abuse she integrates trauma-focused ideas to address overwhelming memories and their effects on daily functioning. The work emphasizes clear strategies rather than long explanations.
Sessions involve straightforward talk, practical tools, and steps to try between meetings. Topics she addresses include relationship communication, coping with anger, stress management at work, substance-related concerns, and caregiver strain. She also works with issues tied to adoption and foster care, aging, blended family dynamics, and first responder stress.

How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's priorities and experience. In practice this means sessions follow what the client brings and shape goals from that starting point. It helps when someone wants their own concerns acknowledged and explored at a steady pace.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers concrete exercises to test unhelpful thinking and to try different responses to anger, anxiety, or low mood. This approach suits people who want clear tools to use between sessions.
Choosing an approach is part of the work and will happen together with the therapist. The therapist will explain options, suggest what may fit the presenting problems, and adjust plans based on how a person responds. The process is collaborative rather than fixed.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Ask about session length and format when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your routine and goals.
