About Lenore

Lenore Gray blends practical talk therapy with heart-centered support. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 16 years of experience. She focuses on family and parenting concerns along with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and relationship issues.

Her style is direct but warm, offering real tools and steady listening. Lenore trained in clinical pastoral counseling and holds a Master of Divinity in Clinical Pastoral Counseling from Ashland Theological Seminary.

Background and approach

She also earned an undergraduate degree from Indiana University. Over more than a decade she has counseled people facing mood disorders, grief, trauma, and communication problems using a mix of evidence-based methods. In sessions she draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and attachment-informed ideas to address patterns that cause pain.

She also uses client-centered listening to help people feel heard and understood. The work often includes practical skills for coping, processing loss, and repairing relationships. Her background includes experience with addictions, intimacy and sexual process concerns, obsessive and compulsive patterns, and midlife or life-purpose questions.

She also supports people dealing with aging and geriatric issues, family of origin wounds, and forgiveness or guilt and shame. Outside of practice she is a single mother and grandmother who enjoys walking in nature, gardening, art, sewing, and raspberry ice cream with dark chocolate chips. Her approach is straightforward and grounded in lived experience and long clinical practice.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take small steps toward what matters. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and focuses on building safety and clearer communication in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room with open listening, reflecting what matters most to them so they can find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they may combine elements from different approaches so the work fits the client's life and needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face from home, phone sessions remove travel barriers, and live chat or text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options can make it easier to maintain regular care around parenting, work, and daily routines while still accessing licensed professionals and consistent therapeutic work.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
