The Terri Cole Show

by Terri Cole

The Terri Cole Show is where psychology meets real life. Hosted by licensed psychotherapist and bestselling author (Boundary Boss, Too Much and Father Wound coming 10/27/26) Terri Cole, this podcast is for anyone who is ready to understand themselves more deeply, create healthier relationships, and stop repeating patterns that no longer serve them. With nearly three decades of clinical experience, Terri breaks down complex psychological concepts into practical tools you can actually use. From boundaries, high-functioning codependency, and people-pleasing to attachment, family-of-origin wounds, self-worth, anxiety, and relationship dynamics, each episode is designed to help you connect the dots between what you learned in the past and how you're living today. You'll hear solo episodes, listener Q&As, and conversations with leading experts in psychology, relationships, wellness, and personal growth. Because when you understand why you think, feel, and behave the way you do, you have the power to make a different choice. Tune in to The Terri Cole Show and start creating more freedom, healthier relationships, and a life that thrills and fulfills you.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Terri Cole— where do I begin with my gratitude for her wisdom, and her willingness to share it with us so openly! I have read Boundary Boss and her other book, Too Much, and I have to say: of all the “self-help” things I’ve done for myself in the last decade, this podcast and those two books have changed my life for the better in practical, real-world ways that nothing else has. As I learn to apply my awareness of boundaries each day, I become more confident, more happy, and find my relationships becoming more grounded in truth. I cannot recommend this podcast highly enough. Thank you Terri!

Terri you have helped me in my life so much. I am still such a work in progress , but you open my eyes more and more each day. Your voice is soothing and motherly and helps me feel so much better about things. I am sorting through past experiences and trauma and dealing with anxiety and you help me remember there is a better future ahead! I Particularly like the segments on mother wounds and have found that very beneficial and validating. Thank you and much love. Elizabeth

I’ve been listening to your work for over a year, and have shared episodes with others. Thank you for your thoughtful and concise deep dives. I also read your book about HFC and it sure hit home-AND enabled me to recognize (not diagnose) those behaviors in others. Thanks!

MOLeezWordz · Jul 2026

I came across your podcasts when I was searching for some self help and tools to deal with my anxiety and co dependency issues. I have childhood trauma, and it has definitely impacted my mental health. Your podcasts helped me take a step back from my past life and move forward. I listen in the morning while I am getting ready for work, and throughout the day while driving around seeing patients. I am an RN, and such a people pleaser. I look forward to new podcasts! Thank you for being such an inspiration to all of us!
