About Terence

Terence Hunt is an LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor) with 28 years of experience based in North Carolina. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and life changes including life purpose. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients.

Terence draws on client-centered methods to listen and follow what matters most to each person. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and motivational interviewing to support change when substance use or stuck behaviors are involved. In practical terms this means talking through problems, setting small goals, and checking what works between sessions.

He has a background in mental health and substance abuse counseling and many years working with mood and trauma-related issues. That experience includes supporting people with addiction, grief, and military-related concerns. Terence combines direct problem solving with conversations about values and direction when life feels off track.

People who are uncertain about next steps in work, relationships, or health can expect straightforward discussions about priorities and options. Terence helps break larger goals into manageable actions and revisits progress together. He pays attention to patterns such as codependency, control issues, and isolation that can block change.

For those dealing with midlife shifts, career uncertainty, or searching for purpose, sessions focus on practical choices and coping strategies. Terence aims to help people weigh options, reduce distressing symptoms, and take steps toward clearer direction over time.

How his approaches translate to online work

Terence uses client-centered therapy online by focusing on what each person wants to talk about and responding to their priorities. This approach helps when someone needs to sort out values, make decisions about work or relationships, or talk through what matters most.

He also applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in remote sessions to spot patterns of thinking that increase anxiety or depression. CBT helps with managing symptoms, trying small behavior changes, and tracking progress between sessions. Motivational interviewing is used when people are weighing change, for example with substance use or stuck habits; it involves clear conversation about ambivalence and next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Terence will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as needs change so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits often help people maintain consistency while they work on direction, coping, or recovery.
