About Ophelia
Ophelia Mayfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi with 15 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, mood challenges such as depression and bipolar, and issues like ADHD and addiction.
She has worked in inpatient, outpatient, and school-based settings. That range gives her experience with different kinds of pressures and routines adults face at home and work. Her background also includes school counseling and mental health roles that informed her practical approach.
Ophelia uses a cognitive-based therapeutic approach, often called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT. In sessions she focuses on current problems and concrete strategies. Clients may work on thought patterns, behavior changes, and small, manageable experiments to test new ways of coping.
She describes her work as collaborative and client-centered. Practical tools such as journaling and mindfulness practices are commonly used to aid reflection and emotion regulation. Sessions aim to create structure and clear steps rather than vague recommendations.
Many people seek her help when they need guidance sorting a stressful life change, rebuilding routines after loss, or managing day-to-day anger and anxiety. She also supports those navigating workplace strain, caregiver stress, body image and money-related worries. To begin, follow the online matching and scheduling steps provided by the service.
How sessions work
How CBT and practical tools are used in online sessions
Ophelia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a central method. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and uses simple experiments and skill practice to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship difficulties.She also incorporates journaling and mindfulness exercises into sessions. Journaling helps track patterns between moods and events, while mindfulness exercises teach short techniques for managing intense emotions and improving focus. These tools are concrete and meant to be practiced between meetings.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and everyday life. Changes are tested in small steps and adjusted over time based on what works for the individual.
Session formats are not detailed in the original biography, so please confirm current online session options before booking. One practical benefit of online sessions is fitting meetings into a busy schedule, for example during a lunch break or between appointments. Another advantage is using digital journaling or shared worksheets during and after sessions to track progress and practice skills without needing extra travel time.
