About Trelease
Trelease Hartfield is a licensed counselor practicing in Georgia with sixteen years of experience. She holds LCPC and LPC credentials and brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy. Trelease emphasizes client strengths and partners with people as they work toward clearer goals and better day-to-day functioning.
Her work focuses on common life stressors like anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting questions, career direction, and men’s issues. Trelease has experience addressing trauma and abuse, panic attacks, and ADHD-related challenges.
She uses straightforward methods to help people notice patterns, try new behaviors, and manage upsetting thoughts and body reactions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to break cycles that keep problems going. Mindfulness practices are introduced to help ground attention and reduce reactivity.
Trelease also brings trauma-focused approaches when past hurt affects daily life. She aims to create a steady pace, so people can address difficult material without feeling overwhelmed. Sessions emphasize small, practical steps that fit into a person's routine.
As someone who has navigated amputation herself, Trelease understands the practical and emotional work of adjusting to physical loss. She invites people to name what matters most to them, then helps translate that into reachable plans. The first step is often filling out a short questionnaire and scheduling a session to see if the match feels right.
How Trelease Uses CBT, Mindfulness, and Trauma-Focused Work Online
Many clients benefit from learning concrete tools to change patterns of thinking and behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions, then test small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood.Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment. Simple breathing and attention practices can reduce reactivity, help with chronic stress, and support coping during difficult emotions.
Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the ways past hurt still shapes daily life. This approach helps people process painful memories safely and develop new habits that reduce triggers and flashbacks.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust plans when something is not working. Collaboration helps make the work feel manageable and relevant to everyday life.

It can also allow shorter check-ins, quieter surroundings, or sessions without video when that better fits someone's routine.
