About Treva
Dr. Treva Sexton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with eight years of clinical experience. She centers her work on real-life relationship issues and practical steps clients can take to feel better.
Dr. Sexton is LGBTQ friendly and aims to create a respectful space where people can talk honestly about intimate and sexual concerns. She helps people improve communication and understanding in many kinds of close relationships.
That includes parenting questions, blended family challenges, and intimacy-related topics.
Background and approach
She also addresses stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, anger, and bipolar-related coping strategies. Her sessions often focus on identifying barriers that get in the way of daily functioning and wellbeing. She uses straightforward planning to map out steps people can try between sessions.
Motivational approaches are used to help clients find momentum when they feel stuck. Dr. Sexton combines client-centered work with cognitive and behavioral ideas to change unhelpful patterns.
Dialectical skills and mindfulness techniques are offered when emotional regulation or impulsivity are challenges. She also supports people dealing with body image, gender dysphoria, adoption and foster care experiences, and issues related to kink or alternative sexual culture. People looking for help with career stress, parenting strain, communication problems, or recovery from relationship hurt will find practical tools and steady support.
Sessions can include problem-solving, skill-building, and planning for life changes. The overall aim is clearer communication and more manageable daily life.
How these approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's perspective. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client's priorities, reflects concerns back, and helps clarify goals to make meaningful changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, manage stress, or address phobias and compulsive patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance that help when impulsivity or intense emotions get in the way.Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can be changed when needed.
The online format supports these methods through flexible session types: video calls for deeper conversation and skill practice, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for quick reflections or reminders. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain momentum between sessions, and practice new skills in day-to-day life.
