About Justine
Justine Terzinski is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Wisconsin. She works with adults who are coping with anxiety, depression, eating concerns, low self-esteem, relationship struggles, and other life stressors. Justine aims to create a calm, straightforward space where people can talk about what’s hard and start making changes.
She uses practical, empowerment-focused methods to help people build self-worth and stronger coping skills. Sessions often focus on small, doable steps like shifting unhelpful thoughts, practicing mindful moments, and improving communication with others.
Background and approach
The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Justine draws from several approaches including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally focused methods, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. She adapts what she offers to fit each person’s situation and priorities.
Therapy is collaborative and paced to the person’s readiness for change. With six years as an LCSW, Justine combines direct clinical experience with a warm, encouraging manner. She listens closely and helps people identify values and goals that matter to them.
That focus guides the practical steps taken between sessions. People often come for help with stress, body image or eating challenges, transitions like separation or career shifts, and struggles tied to attachment or family of origin. Justine supports growth around boundaries, forgiveness, and rebuilding confidence after loss or difficult changes.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Justine often uses client-centered therapy which focuses on listening closely and following the person’s pace and priorities. That approach helps people feel heard and shapes goals that matter to them. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood through practical exercises and homework.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Justine discusses different methods with each person and makes choices together based on goals, comfort, and life demands. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions so tools are useful in day-to-day life.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls let people work face-to-face without travel, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit into busy schedules or provide ongoing support between meetings. These options make it simpler to practice skills, follow up on homework, and keep therapy consistent even with a packed routine.
