Getting to know Terrence Culver

Terrence Culver is a Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC) specializing in mental health and substance abuse treatment for adolescents and families. He works with teens navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and behavioral challenges, helping them build healthier coping skills and lasting emotional resilience. Terrence brings extensive experience in adolescent mental health treatment, including virtual intensive outpatient programming, and is deeply committed to creating a supportive space where teens and their families feel understood. His approach centers on practical, sustainable tools — not just managing symptoms in the moment, but building the confidence and skills that carry forward into adulthood.

What should a new client know about working with you?

"Working with me is direct and structured. I believe teens and families do best when sessions have a clear focus and a plan, rather than just ""checking in"" each week. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing, tailoring the mix to what each teen actually needs, whether that's building coping skills, managing intense emotions, or finding their own motivation to change. For parents, this means you can expect clear communication about the direction of treatment and practical strategies your family can use outside of sessions, not just talk therapy in a vacuum. My goal is to give teens real tools they can rely on, while helping parents feel like informed, involved partners in the process rather than bystanders."

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I start with a thorough assessment — understanding the full picture of a teen's life, including family dynamics, school, and treatment history — then build a clear, individualized treatment plan with specific goals. Before diving into the work, I focus on building rapport and really getting to know each client, since trust is the foundation everything else is built on.
