About Lenore

Lenore Gray brings 16 years of clinical experience and a client-centered sensibility to her therapeutic work.

Background and approach

As an LPC licensed in Texas (TX LPC 88983) and Colorado (CO LPC 0006527), she blends Internal Family Systems thinking with evidence-based therapies to help clients address stress, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, relationship concerns, and process addictions.

Her training includes a Master of Divinity in Clinical Pastoral Counseling from Ashland Theological Seminary and an undergraduate degree from Indiana University, forming a foundation that combines clinical skills with pastoral care values. She has extensive experience supporting people through grief, communication challenges, family-of-origin issues, and the emotional fallout of abuse, neglect, or infidelity.

Lenore draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral strategies, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-informed work, and directed imagery to offer practical tools alongside empathic listening. Outside of practice she values family life, time in nature, and creative pursuits, which inform a grounded, relational style aimed at helping clients move toward greater meaning, healthier relationships, and improved day-to-day coping.

Integrating relational approaches with flexible online care

Lenore often uses Internal Family Systems to help clients explore internal parts and develop more compassionate self-leadership; this approach can be useful for navigating inner conflict, trauma responses, and patterns that affect relationships. She also applies Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support values-based change and skillful acceptance of difficult thoughts and feelings, which can aid work on anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore relational patterns and build healthier connection strategies when intimacy, jealousy, or family-of-origin issues are present.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy, and Lenore works collaboratively to identify what fits a client's goals, needs, and preferences. She integrates techniques from different models to match issues such as grief, communication difficulties, or process addictions, adjusting as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to access consistent care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities, and they allow licensed professionals to deliver evidence-informed methods in ways that meet each person's practical needs.
