About Ophelia
Ophelia Mayfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience. She offers straightforward, practical help for people who are anxious, grieving, struggling with mood changes, or facing major life transitions. She focuses on immediate problems and clear strategies.
Sessions center on identifying difficult thoughts and behaviors and finding steps that actually fit daily life. Ophelia encourages journaling and simple mindfulness exercises to help people manage strong feelings and notice progress over time.
How Ophelia works
Her work draws on a cognitive approach that looks at how thinking patterns affect emotion and behavior. That approach is used to build coping skills for stress, anger, addiction concerns, and relationship or workplace struggles. She also helps with parenting stress, caregiver strain, body image, and money-related worries.
Ophelia has practiced in inpatient, outpatient, and school-based settings. That variety shaped her focus on practical tools and clear problem-solving. She aims to make sessions collaborative so people leave with steps to try between meetings.
People meet her for help with depression, bipolar symptoms, ADHD-related challenges, social anxiety, eating and food-related issues, and compassion fatigue. The plan in early sessions is to set concrete goals, pick a few strategies to try, and adjust as progress is made.

How cognitive approaches work online
Ophelia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. In short sessions people learn to spot unhelpful thinking, test those thoughts, and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.She also draws on practical tools like journaling and brief mindfulness exercises to increase awareness and emotional regulation. Journaling helps track patterns between sessions, while mindfulness practices teach simple ways to calm strong emotions when they arise.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and daily routine. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is working and what needs to change.
Online therapy offers flexibility to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls let people practice skills face-to-face and read nonverbal cues, while phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or camera use is a problem. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins, quick coaching, or to continue momentum between longer sessions.
