About Torey

Torey LaMothe is an MS LPC - a Licensed Professional Counselor with 39 years of clinical experience in Mississippi. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, relationship issues, and addictions. She also helps people facing grief, self-esteem struggles, career questions, and the practical effects of ADHD and bipolar conditions.

She uses straightforward, evidence-informed approaches. Sessions focus on talking through what is happening at home and learning skills to manage strong emotions. Conversations are practical and paced to fit everyday life. The aim is to reduce distress and increase day-to-day coping rather than promise quick fixes.

Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based ideas. Those methods are used to notice difficult thoughts, practice clearer communication, and repair patterns that create recurring conflict. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and a client-centered stance also inform her way of working.

Torey pays attention to family and parenting concerns and to related issues such as blended family dynamics, abandonment, adoption and foster care, and caregiver stress. She also addresses long-term health challenges like chronic pain or illness alongside emotional concerns.

Sessions are conducted in English and follow the counseling standards associated with her MS LPC credential. For people considering starting, she asks for basic information up front and schedules an initial meeting to clarify goals and next steps.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps that fit those values, which can help with anxiety, stress, and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and problems with self-esteem.

Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current reactions. This perspective can be useful for intimacy concerns, abandonment issues, and recurring conflict in adult relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and adjust the plan as progress is made.

The original biography does not list explicit session formats for online care, so please confirm available formats before booking. A practical benefit of meeting with a licensed professional online is easier scheduling that can fit around work and family commitments. Online sessions can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid the need to travel to an appointment, making it simpler to keep regular contact while managing daily responsibilities.
