Loire Bennett

Loire Bennett is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy questions, and career-related stress. Loire aims to make the first step feel manageable and clear for someone who is worried or unsure what to expect.

She earned a Master of Counseling degree from the University of South Florida and brings 24 years of experience across inpatient care, outpatient facilities, and private practice. That variety shapes a practical style focused on what works for each person rather than a one-size-fits-all method. Loire listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people try techniques that might fit their daily life.

Her work often uses client-centered skills such as empathy and active listening. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Jungian ideas when those approaches fit a person’s goals. Loire tailors strategies to the individual and checks in about what helps and what needs adjusting.

Sessions focus on identifying problems, building manageable steps, and finding realistic solutions people can use outside of therapy. Loire schedules live sessions on Wednesdays and Thursdays, with appointments typically lasting 30 to 60 minutes. She encourages anyone considering help to take the small step of reaching out and seeing if the approach feels right.

Her practice notes that she works in English and is based in Florida, and she welcomes conversations about how therapy might fit a person’s life and schedule.

How Loire's approaches work for online therapy

Loire often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or stress.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Loire talks with each person about goals, life demands, and what methods feel most useful, then adapts sessions accordingly. She checks in regularly so techniques are adjusted to what actually helps in daily life.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats Loire offers before booking so you know what options exist. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or longer check-ins when needed. It can also help people try tools such as thought records or mindfulness exercises between sessions and bring those experiences back to talk about with the therapist.
