About Terrie

LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) in California with 15 years of clinical experience. Terrie Pittman focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, parenting, self-esteem, and anger. She uses Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the Gottman Method in her work. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.

Terrie helps people talk through practical relationship problems and the feelings that follow loss or change. She supports parents managing the daily strain of caregiving and the specific challenges of blended family life. She also addresses communication problems, jealousy, infidelity, and the aftermath of separation or divorce.

Her approach pairs talk-based work with concrete skills. CBT techniques are used to notice thought patterns and try new responses. Attachment-based ideas look at how past relationship experiences shape current reactions. The Gottman Method informs work on communication and conflict patterns between partners.

Terrie draws on a broad range of cases from her 15 years of practice, including premarital work, anger management, and domestic violence-related concerns. She aims to help people identify predictable patterns and learn different ways of interacting. Sessions typically focus on small, actionable steps clients can practice between meetings.

Clients are encouraged to select the See online therapy options button to begin the process. A short matching questionnaire helps pair the person with the right session, and scheduling a first appointment follows once the questionnaire is complete.

How these approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current behavior and feelings. It helps people understand why they react strongly in close relationships and supports practicing new ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and shifting responses that keep problems going. The Gottman Method concentrates on practical communication and conflict skills for partners, helping people manage arguments and rebuild trust.

Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your goals, symptoms, and preferences and recommend methods that fit. Clients and therapist make decisions collaboratively and may try different tools until they find what helps most.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a work break or avoiding travel time. It also lets people practice communication skills and CBT exercises between meetings, which supports steady progress without promising a particular outcome.
