    About Theresa

    Theresa Mayhew is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and relationship strain. She works with adults facing depression, grief, addictions, and major life changes. Theresa writes plainly and listens closely to what matters most to each person.

    Theresa uses practical tools to make change feel possible. Sessions often focus on small steps clients can try between meetings. She draws on Motivational Interviewing to support readiness for change and uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to address unhelpful thinking and strong emotions.

    With 14 years of experience, Theresa brings steady, focused support to difficult problems like trauma, bipolar mood swings, and ongoing anger. She also helps people who struggle with isolation, social anxiety, communication problems, and the fallout from divorce or domestic violence.

    Theresa explains skills in plain language and practices them together with each client. She can help people build self-trust, cope with shame or guilt, and find direction after loss or major transitions.

    Theresa is based in Georgia and holds an LPC credential. Conversations are held in English, and she is able to work with international clients. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling details to make sure they match your needs.

  2. How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

    Theresa commonly uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify their goals and build readiness for change, focusing on strengths and personal motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies concrete skills for managing emotions and improving relationships, such as distress tolerance and emotion regulation.

    Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Theresa will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest techniques that match those needs. Together they monitor what's working and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

    The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helpful because sessions can fit into busy days, remove travel time, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Online work also lets therapists share worksheets, practice skills between sessions, and track progress across weeks. Ask about the available session formats and scheduling to find an arrangement that fits your routine.
