About Tori

Tori Mays is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with seven years of practice. She focuses on anxiety, stress, grief, self-esteem, depression, and helping people cope with life changes. She also addresses related concerns such as attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, and workplace problems.

She describes working with people who feel weighed down by anxiety, fear, shame, guilt, or self-doubt. Sessions aim to be collaborative - she listens, asks questions, and helps clients identify small, practical steps forward. The work often starts with clarifying what feels most urgent and what goals matter most to the client.

Over her career she has supported people managing substance use struggles, depression, anxiety, experiences of assault, spiritual questions, and career uncertainty. She also sees clients navigating ADHD or ADD related challenges and young adult transitions. This background gives her a range of perspectives to draw on when deciding what to try in a session.

She uses a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques chosen to fit each person. That might mean learning coping skills for panic, practicing new ways to talk to yourself about shame, or working on communication patterns that reduce conflict at work. The specific techniques vary with the person and the problem.

Clients who prefer clear, practical steps alongside time to tell their story tend to fit her style. To begin, she asks questions to match goals with methods and then builds a plan that can change as progress is made.

How therapeutic methods translate to online sessions

She practices evidence-based techniques that aim to reduce symptoms and build coping skills. One common approach is skill-building for anxiety and panic - learning breathing and grounding exercises, recognizing triggers, and rehearsing responses to reduce acute panic. Another approach focuses on work around shame, guilt, and self-esteem by identifying critical self-talk and practicing alternative, kinder ways of thinking.

Deciding which approaches to use is collaborative. She will review a client's concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest methods to try. The plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps most for everyday functioning and goal progress.

Confirm what session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time so people can keep appointments more consistently. Licensed professionals commonly use these practical benefits to help clients maintain momentum between sessions.
