About Terry

Terry Hasenzahl is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) licensed in Missouri and Nevada with 25 years of clinical experience. She sees adults who are managing stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, relationship challenges, and life changes. Terry also lists blended family issues among her additional focuses and helps people facing parenting strain, caregiver stress, and adjustments after divorce or separation.

She uses straightforward conversation and practical tools in sessions. Terry draws on client-centered methods and teaches skills from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She also uses motivational interviewing, narrative approaches, and mindfulness techniques when helpful.

Clients can expect clear information about why a strategy is suggested and what practice will look like between sessions. Terry aims to help people notice patterns, try small changes, and build on what already works in their daily life. Sessions move at a practical pace, with an emphasis on usable skills for stress, sleep, or managing strong emotions.

Her background includes long experience with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, addictions, trauma and abuse, mood conditions, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Terry also lists aging and geriatric issues, chronic illness, and blended household challenges as areas she often addresses.

She works with adults in Missouri and provides services in English. For someone balancing parenting, a new partner, or shared household logistics, Terry offers practical guidance aimed at reducing conflict and improving everyday routines.

How Terry’s therapeutic approaches work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. The therapist follows the person's concerns and supports their choices while helping them identify practical next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches specific skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood management.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills can help with anger, relationship conflicts, and impulsivity. These approaches are described and tried collaboratively so the therapist and client can find the best fit for goals and day-to-day life.

Confirm the current online session options before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Many clients find that scheduling sessions around work or childcare makes it easier to keep progress steady. Shorter check-ins can fit a busy day, while longer sessions allow for deeper work on trauma or relationship patterns. The therapist will help match session length and frequency to the client's goals and routines rather than assume a one-size-fits-all approach.
