Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward them while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. This approach can help people navigate life transitions, persistent worry, and struggles with motivation by emphasizing meaningful goals rather than eliminating all uncomfortable emotions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns and offers practical, skill-based strategies for managing symptoms and improving daily functioning.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental observation of experience. These practices can support emotional regulation, reduce rumination, and enhance coping during times of change or high stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Terry Hancock works with clients to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adapting techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for each person.
