About Zoauntrist

Dr. Zoauntrist Oldham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 22 years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and concerns about self-esteem and confidence. Her background includes work with mood-related concerns such as panic attacks, postpartum depression, and post-traumatic stress, as well as issues like body image, caregiver stress, and life purpose.

Her approach centers on respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care, with conversations and treatment plans tailored to each person’s circumstances. She integrates cognitive behavioral techniques alongside acceptance and commitment, emotion-focused, and dialectical strategies to address thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in practical ways.

Clients can expect a collaborative process that emphasizes building skills, increasing insight, and supporting meaningful change. Dr.

Oldham frames the decision to begin therapy as a courageous step and positions herself as a consistent source of support through that process. She works in English and offers a range of session formats to meet different needs and schedules.

How evidence-informed approaches translate to online care

Dr. Oldham uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; this approach is practical for managing anxiety, mood difficulties, panic symptoms, and stress-related reactions. She also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and building psychological flexibility so clients can move toward meaningful action even when difficult feelings arise. Both approaches emphasize skills practice and real-world application that translate well to remote work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she takes a collaborative stance in selecting methods. She will work with each person to understand goals, preferences, and challenges, then adapt CBT, ACT, or complementary client-centered techniques to fit the client’s needs and life circumstances.

Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options allow scheduling around work, caregiving, or travel and support ongoing skill development between sessions through written exchanges and brief check-ins. Licensed professionals can tailor pace and format so therapy remains practical and applicable to daily life.
