About Torey

Torey LaMothe is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with 39 years of clinical experience. She works with concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship problems, addictions, grief, and parenting challenges. She also supports people dealing with stress, self-esteem, career shifts, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues.

LaMothe works in a direct, person-focused way. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems, identifying repeated family patterns, and practicing concrete skills. She draws on several established approaches to help people change unhelpful habits and respond differently to old triggers.

Her background spans decades of client work and continuing study in therapies that target thinking, emotion, and attachment. She blends practical behavior strategies with attention to how early relationships shape present reactions. This combination is meant to help people notice patterns learned in childhood and make different choices now.

In sessions she may use techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to address anxious or depressive symptoms. Attachment-based ideas guide work on closeness, boundaries, and trust that trace back to family of origin experiences. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are available when emotion regulation or intense reactions are central concerns.

People who want to address how family roles and expectations still affect their life will find this focus is part of her practice. Torey encourages realistic steps and repeated practice rather than quick fixes. To begin, prospective clients are invited to use the site process to match and schedule a first meeting.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports choosing actions that reflect personal values. This can be useful for anxiety, low mood, or coping with life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of closeness, trust, and boundaries. It helps people understand repeated family roles and try different ways of relating to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That might mean trying behavioral strategies from CBT one week and attachment-focused conversation the next, depending on progress and preference.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list formats. Ask which session types are offered and how they fit your schedule. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel for appointments. Reach out through the site process to learn the session options and set up a first meeting.
