Primary Therapist
Terry started at Lakeview Health in September 2021 as a 4/10 therapist, working at each of the three facilities. She eventually transitioned to a primary therapist role at the Rose women’s substance use disorder program. In November 2023, she moved to Koru Spring as a primary therapist.
Her key initiatives in this position involve serving as a positive role model as well as sharing empirical knowledge gleaned from years of experience along with many sources and different treatment milieux. Terry does this while remembering that each resident has a story and deserves our best.
Her accomplishments include being a therapist in a rehabilitation facility for health care professionals; interfacing and negotiating back-to-work contracts with boards of registration in nursing, pharmacy and medicine. One off shoot of this experience was a private practice and a continuation of this role with recovering health care professionals. She implemented a series of ten-week yoga therapy sessions at a yoga studio near her home where her belief in the work of Alice Miller and others promote the idea that, the body speaks the truth. Yoga is one of those practices that helps quiet the mind and promote deep healing.
She wants you to know she has a passion for truly helping women with their voices, because, doesn’t active addiction stifle our voices? She had children young, and they truly made her a conscious human being. The experience of being a young mother was the impetus for Terry to look deeper within herself. Simply put, a therapist saved her life, and she is just attempting to pay it forward.
