About Terry
Terry Hancock is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas. He brings six years of clinical experience across hospitals, independent practice, and forensic settings. Terry aims to build a trusting, straightforward relationship so people can start making practical changes.
He focuses on clear, usable strategies rather than jargon. Terry often uses a mix of approaches drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical ideas, mindfulness, and client-centered care.
How Terry works
He helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger by teaching coping skills and new ways to respond to difficult thoughts. He also supports those facing career changes, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to trauma and post-traumatic stress. Sessions emphasize collaboration.
Terry listens first, then offers tools that match each person's goals and daily life. He works through guilt, shame, and questions about life purpose in concrete steps so progress can be noticed between sessions. Terry also addresses concerns often connected to caring roles and to military service, along with adjustment challenges faced by young adults and men.
He uses motivation-focused techniques when people need direction or a plan for change. People can expect straightforward conversation, practical exercises, and a focus on small changes that add up. Terry encourages clients to set achievable goals and to keep therapy woven into real life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and focus on values-based actions. It teaches practical ways to make choices that match what matters, which can help with anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy identifies unhelpful thinking and uses concrete exercises to change patterns of behavior and thought, often helping with stress, sleep problems, and mood management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Terry will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. He listens to priorities, tries tools that match those priorities, and adjusts the plan based on what is helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for full conversations and face-to-face interaction, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be used for brief check-ins or when typing is easier. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping a steady path toward change.
