Terri Asanovich

Terri Asanovich is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 20 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She also focuses on communication difficulties, feelings of isolation or loneliness, questions about life purpose, and building self-love.

She aims to build an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what matters most to them. Conversations are practical and straightforward. Terri supports people as they name goals, try small changes, and notice what helps.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral methods to look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. She also uses existential ideas to help people consider meaning and choices in life. Mindfulness practices are offered to help with grounding and reducing reactivity, and solution-focused techniques are used to identify steps that move people forward.

Sessions tend to center on clear goals and doable strategies that fit a person’s life. Terri encourages short experiments between sessions so people can test new ways of coping. She emphasizes collaboration and respects each person’s pace in therapy.

Terri is licensed in California as an LMFT. She brings two decades of professional experience and a calm, practical manner to the work of helping people find more connection and purpose.

How therapeutic approaches adapt to online work

Many people find cognitive behavioral therapy helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors. CBT gives simple tools to test ideas and change routines that keep problems going.

Existential therapy helps people who are wrestling with meaning, life choices, or a sense of purpose. It encourages reflection on values and personal responsibility to help people make decisions that feel more authentic.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. A therapist will discuss your concerns, goals, and preferences and then try approaches that seem to fit. That process is collaborative, and adjustments are made as needs change.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life, and the option to choose session lengths that work for a given day. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to keep consistent appointments and to practice new skills between meetings without a long commute.
