Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Terry Massey. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Terry has been so informative guiding our couples therapy journey so far - I look forward to our future sessions!
Terry has done a great job lending his expertise to my teen daughter. His insights are clear and valid, and he has been particularly helpful in working with me (mom) directly when appropriate. I'd definitely recommend him!
Great communicator and listener. Abundance of knowledge to assist with issues.
Terry is the man. Feels like I’m talking to a helpful and supportive older brother.
Terry has been a great source of support and has helped us gain multiple tools to our communication tool kit.
Terry is an amazing therapist. He listens to me and pays close attention to what I am expressing during our sessions. He is super kind, very attentive. He cares. Truly appreciate his presence and guidance to help me get better. Thank you.
He’s great I can be open and honest with him and he give me appropriate feedback
Terry is a great therapist and would definitely recommend. He is extremely knowledgeable in field. He is unbiased, un-judgmental and engages his clients not only during the session, but challenges and gives beneficial advice throughout l the week. I recommend for both couples and individuals.
He's been absolutely incredible. I felt uncomfortable at first with the idea of therapy and more specifically virtual therapy. My therapist has completely changed that and I can feel the gradual changes in my life from the subtle challenges and encouragement I'm receiving. 10/10
Terry is a genuine human who’s very easy to talk to. Your sessions feel more like talking with a friend than a Therapist but at the end you know you’re doing the work.
Terry is fantastic, can highly recommend him.
Terry is an amazing person. His approach to therapy, especially for someone who has never been in therapy, was perfect. He made me feel safe, calm, and listened to. He was able to get me to open up and share things I had bottled up inside for years. The amount of respect and trust he exudes is second to none.
Doing great.
We are just a few session in with Terry. So far we have no reason to question his intentions, professionalism, advice, and experience. Terry is down to earth and easy to talk too. We look forward to continuing our sessions with Terry, I am confident enough to continue booking 3 weeks in advance. Thank you Terry.
I love Terry's flexibility in supporting the unusual mode of therapy I choose to do. He holds space consciously and powerfully, and creates a safe, powerful container for the work. His highly developed personal consciousness and professional expertise, along with his warmth, compassion, and genuine concern, make him an extraordinary therapist. I recommend Terry enthusiastically!
Terry is the first therapist that actually helped me. Having bad experience with previous ones, I was skeptical at first, but he showed me how professionally done therapy can help. He is very lively and fun, but also vastly experienced to guide me through difficult stuff. I can feel his great passion for helping people, even after 25 years of being a therapist. It is admirable.
I really enjoy speaking with Terry. I feel like I can trust and open up to him, and that he really knows how to help me.
New client and new to all of this, but Mr. Massey has been very helpful and great thus far. I’m like this new lifestyle.
Terry has been fantastic. I have had other therapists for different reasons in the past and I feel like Terry has been the most active and engaging. I would highly recommend him to anyone who asks.
Terry is great! He's been patient and understanding with us and he keeps it 100 all the time. He does not mince his words and that's exactly what we love about him... We have benefited so much from the exercises he asks us to do outside of therapy hours. His approach to the sessions makes them enjoyable and it feels like talking to an old friend who is supportive and gives great, life changing advice.
Terry is the best therapist I could wish for.
Skilled,, he always asks the right questions and get very quickly to the point.
He is a great help.
Massey is a personable person who treats you with respect, yet knows when to challenge you. He's a rapport builder who probes you with difficult questions for you to say the necessary things aloud, for yourself to hear and for him to understand. He looks out for you, like a big brother.
Terry is awesome! We couldn’t ask for a better therapist
Terry is a very approachable therapists.
He’s great
Terry has been a life changing coach for me. I use the word coach because it truly feels like his guidance and perspective allows me to take a step back and evaluate my next actions. Emotionally and physically he’s been helping me to uplift myself and observe my place in the world and the worlds place in my life. I would highly recommend Terry to anyone struggling through a variety of situations or roadblocks. He’s an amazing man!
My wife and I seemed to gel with Terry as soon as we met with him in camera.
He’s friendly, listens well, comes up with good answers and also makes good suggestions for some homework in between sessions.
I’d recommend him 100%.
Terry is great at providing understanding and resources for me on my journey ! Highly Recommend
When I started talking with Terry, it was my first time ever talking to a therapist in any form. I was nervous and guarded even going into the first session, but I needed the help. He has helped me beyond compare, I really appreciate the talks and guidance. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking help.
Since I been in therapy Terry has been an amazing listener and most importantly has given me useful tools to help with some things that I have been struggling with.
From my experience so far Terry has always been very helpful with understanding my issues and finding ways to talk to you in a way that's easy to understand.
Terry is a great therapist. Always a good listener. Our conversations were the right mix between talking and listening. I appreciated that aspect. I would recommend Terry to anyone seeking a supportive outlet during tough times.
Terry is the best! He's easy to talk to and I never feel like he's picking sides. He helps us see the faults in ourselves so we can love one another better
I have been speaking with Terry for almost 3 months now.
I have gotten a lot for this and his positive out looks on different situations.
It’s nice to be able to have a Couselor that you can relate with and that is down to earth and realistic
Very professional, puts things that we do not see in prospective that we can understand! Would recommend him to anyone for any concern! Highly recommended!! Thankyou Terry for all you do and your help
The thought of therapy makes me somewhat nervous...having to actually talk and discuss and bring issues that I am having to the forefront. Terry is extremely inviting, and has a way of making me feel at ease and not stressed giving me the ability to talk about these issues. He is very knowledgeable and really makes me think.
Experienced my first session and I allay know I’ll be continuing my services with Mr. Terry!! I feel as if it is a judgement free safe space professional I’ve been searching for.
Wonderful
Terry has been so awesome, he don’t just hear what I say but he takes the time to analyze it, ask more question to better understand, then continues to get me thinking and challenge me to dig deeper in my head and heart. He is great about checking in before and after our sessions, always providing support and encouragement. I would recommend him to anyone, especially anyone 18-28 as he is easy to talk to, he makes it very clear that there is no pressure or judgement with anything you may or may not share. He is the passenger in your car who plays good music and helps with navigation but doesn’t sit there telling you how to drive like a parent does.
Terry is such a good therapist. He definitely broke many preconceived notions I had about coming to a therapist. Hands down I feel as though I have a friend who is looking out for me and helping me navigate where I am, as well as where I want to be. Thank you so much Terry, you’ve helped me more than you know. Through this experience I’ve been able to frame things differently and understand myself and my psyche much more. With all the stress I have in my life I feel as though I am better equipped to navigate it with everything I have going on. I can go on and on, but long story short, I am grateful and so appreciative to have Terry as my Therapist! Thank you so much for your love, encouragement, support, and friendship! It means so much more than you know. Thank you for helping navigate what I have on my plate. You Rock!!!
Terry is amazing ! I cannot ask for a better friend to help me understand and sort out life problems. He is such an amazing person.
I wish I had more time with Terry, he’s great as my first therapist
Saved us !!
Terry has been incredibly easy to talk to, very professional and with lots of good guidance. Overall a great experience!
I love the way Terry related to us both right off the bat. He makes the sessions easy to open up and fun.
Terry loves to challenge your way of thinking in order to bring out the best in you. Extremely communicative and quick to get back to you. Couldn't recommend a better therapist.
Awesome
Terry is awesome, the man has gone above and beyond to work with my schedule and is constantly trying to get work in. He genuinely wants to see you succeed.
Terry is a very nice and intelligent person. He has been attentive to me and has helped me quite a bit.
Terry is very helpful, kind, and is a great listener. He understands how to relate to people very well. He also does a great job of reaching out between sessions to help you stay engaged and is very flexible. I would recommend Terry to anybody!
Terry Massey has been the best one yet for me. I highly recommend.
Very pleasant to talk to.
A kind and warm hearted therapist with whom I feel comfortable.
