Testimonials

"Teri is one of the most inspirational trauma survivors I've ever met. And from someone who has practiced therapy for 18 years, that's saying a lot. She tells her story with courage, grace, and dignity, and reminds us that forgiveness is a gift we give ourselves. My conference audience loved her and my national trauma expert keynote speaker, Lisa Ferentz, LCSW, of the Ferentz Institute, used Teri’s story of hope as a talking point throughout her entire day of teaching."

Melissa Adamchik
MA; Executive Director, Tristate Trauma Network

“It was a privilege and a joy to witness your amazing presentation and marvel at your courageous healing journey. Sending you hugs and continued blessings for ongoing healing.”

Lisa Ferentz
LCSW-C, DAPA; Founder of the Ferentz Institute

 “I requested Teri share her story with Foster Parents who often open their homes to children who have trauma histories. Teri’s story of hope is just that- a message to individuals of the hope for healing that can occur when resiliency meets positivity; a message of the beauty that comes from the fight to overcome pain and suffering in this world; a message that all people, no matter their stories, no matter their trauma, no matter their history- can, in fact, overcome and lead a life of joy, happiness, adventure, and love. Teri’s story is inspiring, empowering, and entertaining and I consider it a privilege to know her personally.”

Jennifer Parham
MS, LPC; Coordinator of Parent Education Services
