About Ophelia

Ophelia Mayfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience. She works with adults who struggle with anger, stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. She also helps people facing career pressures, addiction concerns, relationship or parenting strain, and self-esteem issues.

She has practiced in inpatient and outpatient settings and in schools. That variety means she has seen how anger and stress show up at work, at home, and in classrooms. She focuses on current problems and on practical steps people can use right away.

Her main approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which she uses to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with clearer, more useful actions. Sessions often include journaling prompts and simple mindfulness exercises to help calm strong emotions and reduce reactivity.

In a session she aims to be collaborative and structured. Expect concrete tools and short exercises to practice between meetings. The work emphasizes emotion regulation, clearer communication, and planning for everyday challenges.

Ophelia practices in Mississippi and works in English. She has experience supporting concerns such as bipolar disorder, depression, trauma and abuse, caregiving stress, eating and body image issues, workplace problems, and compassion fatigue. For next steps she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How CBT and brief skills work in online sessions

Ophelia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize patterns of thinking that worsen anger and stress. CBT breaks down situations into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and shows practical ways to test and change thinking that fuels strong reactions.

She also integrates short mindfulness exercises and journaling prompts into online work. Mindfulness practices help reduce emotional intensity in the moment, while journaling makes it easier to spot triggers and rehearse alternative responses between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which tools fit their goals and daily life. That may mean trying a few strategies and adjusting what is practiced based on what helps most.

Confirm current session formats before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins on a workday. They can also let people use audio-only meetings when bandwidth is low or choose sessions that focus on exercises and homework rather than longer talk therapy.
