About Terri
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 23 years of experience, Terri Hipps focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and coping with life changes. She speaks English and works from Texas. Terri uses Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Trauma-Focused approaches to help people address emotional and behavioral struggles.
Terri prefers straightforward, person-focused sessions that center the client's concerns. She listens to each person’s story and adapts her way of working to match practical goals. Sessions typically involve talking through recent problems, identifying patterns, and trying small, concrete changes between meetings.
Her background includes long-term work with people affected by trauma, abuse, and substance-related problems. That experience shapes how she responds to crises and recurring stress. She also supports people dealing with family complexity, caregiver strain, and life transitions.
In sessions Terri often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and to build different responses. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and on Client-Centered methods to keep the conversation focused on the person’s priorities.
People who start with her can expect clear talk about goals, practical steps to try between sessions, and ongoing adjustments based on what helps. To begin, the process uses a short matching questionnaire and scheduling system to arrange the first appointment.

How her approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s priorities. Sessions give the client space to describe concerns while the therapist reflects and clarifies what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, respectful conversation about life problems.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviors. It breaks problems into specific thoughts, feelings, and actions, then tests small behavior changes or thought experiments. CBT is often used for anxiety, anger, and depression because it targets day-to-day habits and reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Terri will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what the client finds useful. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus on trauma processing, skill-building with CBT, or quick solution-focused steps.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the therapist's biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow brief check-ins when time is limited, or remove the need to travel to an office. Ask about session length and any practical arrangements during the initial scheduling step.
