Thank you so much for your help. Following the instructions from the Answer on the Stack Overflow thread I was able to access mysql in Terminal.
It's crazy that none of the MySQL documentation tells Mac users how to do this. At least, I didn't come across this info in anything I read from them.
I have been following along with an older video course created by a Windows user, and he shows the command line client as being a separate entity, so I thought I needed to download something else somewhere.
If any Mac users come across this thread in the future, what worked for me was the following:
1. Open Terminal.
2. Paste in /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -u root -p
3. Hit Enter
4. Terminal prompted me for my password
Here is where it went a little screwy -- I keep passwords in 1Password and when I tried copy/pasting into Terminal the first time I clicked on the Terminal screen cursor and then pasted the password. This gave me the 'access denied' error message.
I then tried again, this time simply navigating back to Terminal after copying the password and pasting it in without clicking on anything. That worked.
A couple of follow-up questions:
How to I exit mysql and go back to the regular Mac terminal?
Is it important for some reason to do this, to end a session?
