About Theresa

Theresa Mayhew is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing major life changes like divorce and separation. She focuses on day-to-day challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. Theresa aims to make therapy practical and easy to understand for people who are overwhelmed or uncertain about their next steps.

Theresa brings 14 years of clinical experience to her work. She uses methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and build new coping skills. She also integrates tools from the Gottman Method and Solution-Focused Therapy when relationship issues or goal-focused work are needed.

Sessions are conversational and goal oriented. Theresa helps clients set clear, manageable steps they can try between sessions. She also addresses deeper issues such as trauma, grief, and addictions with patience and paced skill building.

Theresa practices in Georgia and works in English. She accepts international clients as well, and she tailors plans to each person’s practical constraints and goals. Her approach balances direct skills training with supportive listening.

People who come to Theresa often want help coping with life transitions, improving communication, managing mood problems, or finding a clearer sense of purpose. She guides clients through realistic strategies for change and helps them track progress over time.

How these approaches can help online

Theresa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and then practice small changes that reduce stress and improve mood. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing reactions during major life changes.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help when emotions feel overwhelming or communication breaks down.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Theresa will work with each person to identify goals and try techniques that suit their needs. Together they check what helps and adjust plans as progress is made.
