About Brandy
Brandy Terry is a licensed mental health counselor with twelve years of experience in the field. She holds a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and a Utah LMHC credential. Brandy aims to make therapy a straightforward, honest place to begin change for people feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, and parenting concerns among other issues. Brandy brings a direct yet compassionate style to sessions.
Background and approach
She encourages clients to decide what they want to change and helps them take practical steps toward those goals. Her background includes work in trauma treatment, substance abuse support, attachment and family dynamics, and grief and loss. That experience shapes how she blends approaches during conversations to address both current problems and deeper patterns.
Brandy favors clear communication and emotional warmth in sessions. She balances empathy with honest feedback to help people notice patterns, try new skills, and make steady progress. Outside of work she stays grounded through creative projects and time with her dog Coda.
Brandy lives and practices in Utah and conducts sessions in English. She also runs a parenting group that connects her with people navigating the challenges of raising children. Her work aims to be practical and interactive, with tools you can use between sessions.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and emotions. It helps people understand patterns in connection and trust so they can form healthier responses in close relationships.Client-Centered Therapy centers the client’s goals and perspective. The therapist listens closely, reflects what they hear, and helps people make choices that fit their values and needs.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That plan can change as work unfolds so the approach stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people have a full conversation, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is low, and messaging or chat supports shorter check-ins or on-the-go reflection. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy days while using the therapeutic approaches described above.
