About Terry
Terry Mayo is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression. Terry also helps people facing communication problems, forgiveness struggles, feelings of guilt and shame, isolation, questions about life purpose, and issues around self-love.
She works from the view that each person knows their own story best. Sessions are collaborative and practical. Terry listens for patterns in relationships and daily thinking that keep problems stuck, and she points out small, usable changes people can try between meetings.
Terry draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early and current relationships shape reactions to stress. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with real-world experiments.
For people affected by trauma, Terry can include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) techniques to reduce the intensity of painful memories. She also uses elements of the Gottman Method when addressing communication and relationship patterns with a focus on clearer interaction and repair.
Her approach is straightforward and focused on what someone can do next. Sessions aim to make daily life more manageable by clarifying goals, changing small habits, and working through painful emotions such as guilt or shame.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how patterns from past and current relationships shape reactions to stress and closeness. Online sessions can use conversation and reflections to notice those patterns and try new ways of interacting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying upsetting thoughts and testing them with practical steps. In remote sessions this often means setting small experiments between meetings and reviewing the results together.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will collaborate with each person to decide whether attachment ideas, CBT, EMDR, or elements of the Gottman Method best match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That choice can shift as therapy goes on and as new priorities emerge.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is limited, or allow for sessions without traveling. These practical benefits can help people keep therapy consistent while they work on guilt, shame, relationship patterns, and trauma-related memories.
