About Zoe
Zoe Segers is a licensed counselor with 25 years in mental health. She holds the Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) credentials and practices from Georgia. She focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside relationship, stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma-related issues.
Her work also covers LGBT matters, grief, intimacy difficulties, ADHD, and other life transitions. She values clear communication and practical steps. Sessions look at how people relate to one another and where patterns get stuck.
Background and approach
Zoe helps identify strengths in each situation and shows ways to try different responses. Her goal is straightforward: reduce overwhelm and increase coping skills that fit daily life. Her clinical style blends client-centered listening with hands-on techniques.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and the Gottman Method inform her choices. She adapts tools depending on what a person or couple needs most in the moment. Zoe often works with issues tied to family roles, blended families, adoption and foster care, and caregiving stress.
She also supports people facing attachment struggles, body image concerns, and sexual or intimacy questions including kink and alternative cultures. Sessions look at both practical problem solving and underlying emotional patterns. Therapy can include short-term goals and longer work when needed.
Zoe describes counseling as a collaborative process where clients learn skills and make small changes that add up. She accepts clients in English and offers services across state lines for international clients when appropriate.
Approaches that translate well to online family and relationship work
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person without judgment and building a trusting relationship. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and teaches specific skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress that affect family life. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on the emotional bonds between partners or family members and helps reshape how people respond to one another to improve connection and intimacy.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals and preferences and then recommend methods that fit those needs. That collaborative process can combine listening with skills practice so clients learn tools they can use between sessions.
Online therapy offers flexibility through live video, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video replicates many aspects of an in-person session and is helpful for conversations that benefit from seeing facial cues. Phone sessions allow work when video is not possible. Live chat and messaging provide short, accessible ways to check in or practice new skills between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy family schedule and to continue work across distances.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
