About Theresa

Theresa Mayhew is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, and career questions.

Theresa uses practical, skills-based approaches in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice thought and behavior patterns that feed anger and emotional overwhelm. She also uses elements of the Gottman Method, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy when they fit a client's goals.

Sessions focus on concrete strategies. That can mean learning specific coping skills, practicing communication techniques, or setting short-term steps to reduce conflict. Theresa emphasizes skills clients can try between sessions to see what helps in daily life.

She has worked across a wide set of concerns over her career, including mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and relationship strain. Her background supports people managing both immediate upset and longer-standing patterns of resentment or avoidance.

Theresa offers services in English and accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Theresa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anger and anxiety. It is useful for workload stress, persistent worry, and patterns that fuel outbursts. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. It can help when strong emotions lead to conflict or when someone wants better ways to calm down and respond.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with the client to decide which methods best match goals and daily demands. That means reviewing what the client wants to change, trying specific skills, and adjusting the plan based on what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules require it, and reduce travel time. They also let therapists assign and review in-the-moment practice between appointments, which supports skill building for anger management.
