Torey LaMothe

Torey LaMothe is a licensed professional counselor with 39 years of experience helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship concerns. She practices in Mississippi and draws on a long career to provide steady, practical support when life feels overwhelming.

In sessions she offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through what is happening now and what their goals are. Conversations focus on concrete steps to reduce distress, improve communication, and build coping skills. The tone is direct but warm, aimed at making change feel possible and manageable.

Her work addresses a wide range of issues including parenting strain, intimacy-related concerns, career stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and challenges related to adoption, attachment, or aging. She also helps people facing eating concerns, body image issues, chronic illness, and caregiver stress.

Torey uses a mix of proven methods to match each person’s needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful patterns, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and actions, and attachment-based perspectives to improve connection and trust. Dialectical and client-centered approaches shape how she supports emotion regulation and self-understanding.

Clients who choose to work with her can expect practical strategies, thoughtful listening, and a focus on small, steady steps toward better daily functioning. To begin, readers are invited to follow the site’s Start Therapy process and complete the short matching questionnaire.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It’s useful for stress, anxiety, anger, and life transitions where motivation and direction feel unclear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to interrupt them; this approach can help with depression, anxiety, and addictive patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and current relationships shape emotion and trust, which can help with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and family-related stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Expect discussion, checking in about what’s helpful, and adjustments over time rather than a fixed plan from the start.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people keep therapy in the rhythm of their week while focusing on skills and strategies that translate to everyday situations.
