About Daysja
Daysja Terry is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with seven years of experience based in North Carolina. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, and self-esteem struggles. She also addresses related topics such as attachment and abandonment, body image, codependency, and substance use challenges.
In private practice she focuses on guiding individuals through life transitions. That includes relationship changes, becoming or being a parent, and redefining personal goals. Sessions are practical and conversational, with attention to what is getting in the way day to day.
Her style is collaborative and person-centered. That means she listens to what matters most and helps people try concrete steps between sessions. Conversations often include practicing communication, examining patterns from family of origin, and looking at how attachment or past losses affect current relationships.
She is experienced supporting people with kink and alternative sexual cultures, and she addresses intimacy and commitment concerns without judgment. She also works with caregiver stress, fertility and fatherhood issues, and coping after natural or human-caused disasters.
Clients can expect straightforward talk about goals, small experiments to test new behaviors, and regular checks on progress. Sessions aim to make daily life more manageable and to clarify next steps for relationships, parenting, and personal growth.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often used in this work include cognitive-behavioral strategies and attachment-informed approaches. Cognitive-behavioral strategies focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying new behaviors that reduce anxiety in social situations, public speaking, or relationship conflict. Attachment-informed approaches look at early relationship patterns and how they affect intimacy, communication, and trust today, helping people notice and shift repeating patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That process can include trying an approach, reviewing how it feels, and adjusting plans together based on progress and preferences.
Confirm the current online session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone focus on practicing skills between sessions in their usual environment. Licensed professionals adapt techniques so they remain practical and focused when working remotely.
