About Loire
Loire Bennett is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 24 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, relationship and family concerns, parenting and caregiver stress, and many related issues including codependency. Loire invites straightforward conversation about what is not working and practical steps to change it.
She trained at the University of South Florida and has worked in inpatient, outpatient, and private practice settings. That range gives her familiarity with short-term crisis work and longer-term care. In sessions she focuses on the person in front of her and what they say is most pressing right now.
Loire blends several approaches so people can try different ways of coping. Client-Centered techniques mean active listening and responding to what the client brings. Cognitive Behavioral tools help identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going.
She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take practical steps toward those values. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are offered when people need help regulating strong emotions and managing reactions. Jungian ideas may be brought in for clients interested in exploring deeper patterns and personal meaning.
Sessions are scheduled as live meetings and typically run 30 to 60 minutes. Loire explains options, discusses goals, and helps set small, realistic steps. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
How Loire uses therapy approaches online
Loire commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and on taking small steps toward what matters. It can help when someone is pulled between pleasing others and their own goals. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful habits and ease anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Loire discusses clients' goals and preferences and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative planning can include short skill-building, tracking patterns between sessions, or focusing on values and action steps depending on what the client needs.
The biography indicates live sessions that run 30 to 60 minutes, so confirm current session options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so a session can happen during a lunch break or between obligations. Loire will explain how she structures online meetings and what practical steps help sessions fit into everyday routines.
