" And I also want to understand and strengthen the parts of us that are good, true, hu man, and healthy, even if those parts are regularly eclipsed.
I've noticed that some problems can feel like second skin. They become so engrained in us that it can be hard to imagine life without them, even if we are desperate to be rid of the suffering they cause. Additionally, our problems and pathologies have a way of outsmarting us, like they side-step our coping skills and outargue our rational mind. Finally, many of us do not even feel emotionally safe enough to begin exploring and exposing what causes us suffering.

My desired families are those that love Jesus and want to grow in their faith. Of course, I would love and accept all clients despite religious/philosophical preferences. I have extensive experience working with couples, individuals/couples coping with trauma, coping with a phase of life, addictions, and men's issues. The single most important attribute I can provide, higher than the philosophy and the techniques of counseling, I genuinely care about every individual that steps into my care. We all need a support system that cares for our needs and can point us in the right direction when we are surrounded by darkness.

I believe that one of the most healing aspects of therapy is the relationship between therapist and client which is one intended to be that of a traveling companion rather than an "expert"-"advice receiver". This is why I tend to pay special attention to the formation and maintenance of that relationship in order to help others explore what matters to them and engage with that in the face of mental health barriers. I have been able to work with individuals that find themselves struggling with lasting impacts of trauma, depression, anxiety, interpersonal concerns, and life transitions.

Hello there! I'm Terry Coy, an Individual, Marriage, and Family Therapist. For many this process and seeing so many names of therapy or mental health names can be overwhelming. With this in mind, I would like to introduce myself in what I would call session zero. No fees, get to know me a little bit, and hopefully we get a head start on building trust and comfort. First, congratulations on making it this far. Already, although it may not seem like much, you have taken a HUGE step toward improving your life. Therapy, because of myths and cultural stigmas, may seem either scary or useless.

I feel sense of humor and rapport building are my personal strengths and feel these tools have been very helpful in developing many therapeutic relationships throughout the years.
We don’t know what we don’t know, and sometimes, we need a little help with navigating the unknown. We can find ourselves in foreign territory, struggling to manage difficult emotions, and possibly not having the tools to get through it all by ourselves. I am a licensed clinical social worker and have worked in many treatment settings throughout the years, helping teens and adults “move through the tough stuff." I wholeheartedly believe we all go through it and we all need help. My areas of expertise are helping with addictions and mood disorders, but my work has not been limited to these.

Suffering is a part of everyone's life, and it comes in many forms which can impact our mental health and overall wellbeing, but you can get back in balance.
My vision is that clients find genuine help, healing, and hope right where they are at, finding peace as they navigate daily life. I have worked with ages 0-55 throughout my career struggling with a wide range of mental health and relationship concerns.

Because of my work in helping couples recover from deep relationship wounds, many of my clients are those seeking help before their problems become more severe, but much of my work is directed toward bringing healing to relationships that have been traumatized by an affair.
My experience and passion have been focused on helping couples and individuals work through a relationship crisis, including infidelity issues. By helping clients gain greater insight into the causes of their problem and clarity regarding a healthy & satisfying relationship, they are able to experience real change rather than just temporary relief from symptoms.

I rely on my faith, an integrative education, and continual study of Ericksonian Hypnosis (please ask). My 28yr marriage to Jennifer, who has similar training in marriage & family therapy, and 4 kids--they all add greatly to my knowledge, awareness, and experience. Bridging good science, spirituality, and responsible religion, perhaps, while assisting my clients to recognize their resources defines my role as therapist. Very intelligent people seek therapy when it seems they have tried everything they know; yet, the struggle continues. Some seek therapy for help in discerning their options. It is not meant for us to do this alone.

I feel I am most helpful when working with clients who have a sense of where they want their lives to go, who acknowledge the obstacles that confront them, and who are willing to form a collaborative relationship with me to address those challenges and apply the principles and practices that will produce the desired outcomes in their lives.

Male Therapists
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
