About Ophelia

Ophelia Mayfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 15 years of experience. She works with adults who want clearer ways to manage stress, anxiety, grief, or anger that spills into work and relationships.

She has practiced in inpatient, outpatient, and school-based settings. That range means she has seen urgent concerns and everyday strains. Her background includes work with self-esteem, relationship skills, parenting questions, and addiction-related problems.

Ophelia uses a cognitive-based approach rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). In sessions she helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and then tests different responses. The focus is practical - small changes that reduce reactive patterns and improve day-to-day functioning.

She often brings journaling and mindfulness into the work. Those tools aim to increase awareness of triggers and give simple skills for emotional regulation. Clients can expect concrete exercises to try between sessions and discussion of what worked.

Her way of working is collaborative and structured. She talks through current challenges, helps set short-term goals, and adjusts strategies over time. This approach is aimed at people who want hands-on practices to manage anger, cope with life changes, or rebuild confidence.

How sessions work

How CBT and practical skills translate to online sessions

Ophelia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice thought patterns that feed anger and to practice different reactions. CBT sessions focus on clear steps - spotting triggers, testing new responses, and measuring small changes over time. This method is commonly used for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress-related problems.

She also includes journaling and mindfulness practices as part of the work. Journaling helps map when anger builds and what precedes it, while mindfulness exercises give short skills for calming breath and attention. Both are concrete tools clients can use between sessions and report back on in later meetings.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which techniques to try based on their day-to-day challenges and goals. That means practical choices about exercises, homework, and how to adapt skills to work or home situations.

The profile does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule therapy around work, reduce travel time, and allow people to practice skills in their usual environment. Discuss format and timing when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions fit your routine.
