Teri Struthers, LPCC

Teri Struthers is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Minnesota with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on depression, anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, parenting pressures, and life transitions. Teri also lists blended family issues among her focus areas and incorporates faith when clients want that included.

Her earlier work in nursing, military life, and college teaching informs a practical and structured approach. Sessions emphasize clearer thinking, recognizing patterns, and building habits that reduce daily stress. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used alongside client-centered conversation to help people try small changes and see what works.

Teri frames therapy as a collaborative process. She asks questions, listens for strengths, and helps people set concrete steps they can practice between meetings. She also helps clients reflect on relational patterns and communication problems that affect blended households and parenting roles.

Faith can be part of the work when a client requests it. Teri respects different values and will include spiritual concerns only when relevant to a person’s goals. She aims to balance practical problem-solving with attention to a client’s personal beliefs.

Typical topics include coping with separation and divorce, caregiver stress, workplace pressure, grief, intimacy issues, and family of origin concerns. She also addresses ADHD-related challenges, social anxiety, and life purpose questions. The focus is on clearer choices and manageable steps.

People who prefer straightforward discussion and practical tools may find this approach useful. Teri encourages clients to notice small shifts and build routines that support lasting change.
