More about Terrence

  • 25 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois, with 25 years of professional work experience. I have worked in Chicago as a therapist providing individual, couples and and family counseling. As a native Chicagoan, I truly understand how the hustle and bustle of urban living can impact one's life. I strive to be the best me that I can be, and to live a life filled with peace, joy and prosperity.

I incorporate this in my practice utilizing a strength based approach that includes solution focused therapy.

I am a graduate of the University of Iowa with a Bachelor's of Arts in Journalism and Mass Communication and a Master's in Social Work.

I have experience working with clients experiencing relationship issues, lgbtq+ related issues, trauma, abuse, motivation, self esteem, & confidence.

I strive to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
