Brandy Terry , LMHC

Brandy Terry holds a Master’s degree in Mental Health/Mental Health Counseling, a graduate qualification that prepared her for clinical practice, and she is credentialed as an LMHC - a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Utah. With 12 years of experience in the mental health field, she has worked extensively with individuals, couples, parents, and families, developing particular expertise in trauma treatment, substance abuse care, attachment and family dynamics, and grief and loss.

She aims to create a welcoming, safe starting point in therapy where clients can identify the changes they want and determine how to overcome current obstacles. Her approach blends compassion and honesty, reflecting a belief that people are generally doing the best they can and sometimes benefit from support to move forward. Brandy applies evidence-informed interventions while honoring each person’s pace and choices.

Outside of clinical work she remains rooted in her community as a native Utah resident with experience both inside and outside the LDS church. She also runs a parenting group that serves many families and finds that work deeply fulfilling. Her personal interests include helping others, spending time with her dog Coda, and nurturing a creative spirit.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Brandy integrates several well-established approaches to meet a range of needs. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional safety - it can be useful for clients working on relationship difficulties, parenting concerns, or attachment issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical strategies and can be effective for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) addresses distress linked to traumatic memories by using targeted processing techniques to reduce the intensity of those memories.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Brandy works collaboratively with each person to explore goals, preferences, and life circumstances, then recommends methods that align with those factors rather than prescribing a single path for everyone.

Online therapy offers flexibility to access licensed professionals in ways that fit daily life - whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule consistent sessions, maintain momentum between meetings, and integrate therapy into busy routines while working with therapists who tailor care to each client’s needs.
