About Terri

Dr. Terri Robertson brings 24 years of professional experience to her practice, combining evidence-informed methods with a calm, client-centered approach.

Background and approach

She emphasizes cognitive behavioral therapy as a practical framework for identifying unhelpful thoughts and building skills to manage stress, anxiety, mood disturbances, sleep problems, and chronic pain. Her work also incorporates trauma-focused strategies and motivational interviewing when those methods match a client's needs.

Known for fostering an open and nonjudgmental atmosphere, Dr. Robertson supports people navigating grief, relationship strains, anger, self-esteem concerns, bipolar and mood disorders, panic and phobias, and the lasting effects of abuse.

Based in Texas and licensed as TX Psychologist 37152, she helps clients explore life purpose, cope with illness or disability, and address issues such as isolation, guilt, and women's health topics. Her practice aims to equip clients with practical tools and collaborative planning so they can move toward clearer goals and improved day-to-day functioning.

Applying Evidence-Informed Approaches in Online Care

Dr. Robertson commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and build concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, panic, and phobias. Motivational interviewing is also used to support people who are weighing change or struggling with motivation by exploring values, ambivalence, and practical next steps in a collaborative way.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works together with each person to determine what methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances. This collaborative stance helps tailor interventions so they feel relevant and doable for day-to-day life.

Online therapy with Dr. Robertson is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options can make it easier to maintain consistency, fit sessions into busy schedules, and continue care when attending in-person visits is difficult.
