About Torey
Torey LaMothe is a licensed professional counselor with 39 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She provides steady support for life transitions, relationship concerns, addictions, and self-esteem struggles. Her style is calm and direct, aimed at practical steps people can try between sessions.
In sessions she listens first and asks clear questions to understand what matters most. Torey uses a mix of approaches to help people learn new skills and change unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
She focuses on building coping tools people can use in everyday life. Her work often addresses attachment and intimacy issues, parenting stress, anger, and career-related strain. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, body-image concerns, and the impacts of adoption or abandonment.
The aim is steady progress rather than overnight fixes. Torey draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based work, and client-centered principles. She explains techniques plainly and practices them with patients so skills become habits outside the room.
Clients can expect straightforward guidance, goal-focused plans, and space to process painful memories. Torey practices in Mississippi as an MS LPC and LA LPC, and she helps people build routines that fit real life.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on choosing actions that align with personal values even when emotions are uncomfortable, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, mood problems, and coping skills training.Picking the right approach is something the therapist will do together with the client. Torey will listen to goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what helps most. The process is collaborative and practical, with regular check-ins about progress and next steps.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and mirror in-person sessions, while phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
