Tori Mays, LPC

Tori Mays is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who feel weighed down by anxiety, shame, guilt, self-doubt, or low self-esteem. Tori invites clients to work together as a team to address these struggles and find healthier ways forward.

She commonly supports people facing stress, grief, depression, and major life changes. Her practice also addresses concerns such as panic attacks, social anxiety, workplace problems, and issues that often affect young adults. Caregiver stress, attachment difficulties, body image, and feelings of isolation are also part of her caseload.

Tori uses a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. She views each client as an individual with a unique story and adapts methods to fit their needs and goals. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on real-life coping skills and clearer thinking.

Her background includes work with people impacted by substance use, assault, and spiritual struggles, alongside career confusion and attention-related concerns. That variety informs a flexible approach in the room. Tori listens first, then helps plan steps toward a more hopeful tomorrow.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used in ways that fit the individual. One common approach focuses on anxiety management through skill-building and exposure strategies. That work involves identifying unhelpful thinking, practicing coping exercises, and gradually facing feared situations to reduce avoidance and panic symptoms.

Another helpful method emphasizes emotion awareness and self-compassion to address shame, guilt, and low self-esteem. This involves mapping emotional patterns, practicing self-talk changes, and building small habits that reinforce self-kindness and self-love.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, try methods that suit your situation, and adjust based on what helps. Clients take an active role in deciding which techniques to keep using.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when a full appointment is not needed. Licensed professionals can tailor pacing and exercises so therapy fits everyday life while focusing on measurable steps forward.
