Terry Hasenzahl, LMFT

Terry Hasenzahl is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 25 years of clinical experience in Missouri and Nevada. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. Terry also addresses relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, sleeping problems, parenting strains, and social anxiety and phobia.

She uses a person-centered approach that focuses on each person's strengths. Sessions include practical skills, education, and concrete strategies to manage difficult feelings and behaviors. Terry draws on cognitive behavioral methods to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and on motivational interviewing to support change.

Therapy often includes mindfulness practices to help with focus and emotional regulation. Dialectical behavior therapy tools are used to teach skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. Narrative ideas may be used to help people tell the story of their experience in clearer, more helpful ways.

Terry’s work spans caregiving stress, blended family issues, chronic illness, addiction concerns, eating-related issues, and midlife or aging challenges. She also supports people dealing with divorce, family-of-origin problems, and forgiveness work. Her practice brings many years of direct client work to these topics.

Sessions are conversational and practical. Terry aims to work collaboratively to set goals, track progress, and adjust strategies as needed. People who prefer straightforward guidance with a focus on skills and real-life problem solving often find this approach useful.
