About Makeba

Makeba Terrell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationships and the challenges they bring, including marriage, long-term partnerships, and issues that follow separation or divorce. She also helps adults dealing with depression, anxiety, grief, and low self-esteem.

Her work centers on clear communication and practical tools. Sessions aim to reduce conflict, improve emotional connection, and rebuild trust after ruptures. She frames treatment around the problems a person brings and tailors conversations to match individual needs.

Makeba adapts her approach to what each person needs in the moment. She helps people process grief and loss, manage stress, and cope with life changes. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, codependency, commitment and communication problems, and feelings of guilt and shame.

She has additional experience supporting people facing caregiver stress, first responder challenges, cancer-related concerns, and attachment or abandonment issues. Makeba works with adults on anger, compassion fatigue, and mood concerns such as disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD). She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide care.

Her practice respects each person’s background and pace. Conversations are direct but compassionate, and treatment plans are adjusted as progress is made. To begin, clients follow the site’s Start Therapy button and complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How evidence-based approaches guide online care

Makeba uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage relationships, mood, and life transitions. For example, approaches that teach clearer communication focus on practical skills you can practice between sessions to reduce conflict and improve emotional connection. Techniques aimed at mood and anxiety symptoms usually center on identifying unhelpful thinking and building steady coping strategies for stress and worry.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will listen to your priorities, discuss options, and tailor methods to match your goals and preferences. That collaboration helps decide which techniques to use and how to pace the work so it fits daily life.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats offered before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people try different session rhythms while maintaining the same overall treatment plan with a licensed professional.
