Gholdengo's Good as Gold Ability makes it immune to status moves, thereby avoiding any status drops it can get from a raid boss' move.
This build centralizes on Gholdengo's high Special Attack stat, which is further bolstered with Nasty Plot boosts before attacking. It can then use Shadow Ball and deal super-effective damage.

Kingambit's natural bulk paired with Swords Dance allows it to make quick work of raid Pokemon with Psychic Tera Types.
Offensively, Kingambit can set up with Swords Dance to boost its own Attack stat, Taunt to prevent raid bosses from using status moves, then proceed in attacking with Kowtow Cleave.

This Scizor Tera Raid build functions well against Psychic-type Pokemon. Its high Attack stat can be bolstered even further with Swords Dance so it can hit harder with X-Scissor.
Scizor can also raise its critical hit ratio with Focus Energy and Scope Lens in order for it to deal bigger damage.
The following Pokemon are viable alternatives against Psychic Tera Type raid bosses. They can still dish out damage to help take out the raid Pokemon.

Most Psychic-type moves are special moves, so if you encounter a raid boss that has a Psychic Tera Type, has access to Psychic moves, and has high Special Attack stat, you may run into some trouble.
Try lowering their Special Attack stat to weaken their attacks. You can also set up Light Screen to make you and your team more bulky against these moves.
