Terri Goldstein serves as our Treasurer. She began her career as a therapist in 2017, after a 30-year career in non-profit, human services. She earned her Master of Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix. “My desire to be a fellow traveler on a client’s therapeutic journey is seeded in my first-hand knowledge of the healing benefits of a trusting, counseling relationship. My competence as a therapist comes from the culmination of my academic, and professional experience, life-long intuition, and my own intrapsychic journey.” Terri is an integrative counselor who embraces a hope-based philosophy built on four theoretical pillars: humanistic, psychoanalytic, cognitive behavioral and postmodern theory, including narrative therapy.  She strives to be an experienced guide for her clients as they seek to make the changes necessary to accomplish their mental health, wellness, education, and career goals. Terri’s focus is on empowering her clients as they navigate the human experience, endeavoring to triumph, and coping with loss.
