About Loretta
Loretta Moore is a licensed professional counselor in Michigan with 32 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or major life changes. She also supports those facing relationship strain, family conflict, or feelings of isolation and guilt.

Background and approach
Loretta has collaborated with community agencies such as child protective services, adult protective services, and local police to address client safety when needed. She has also worked with people dealing with addiction in both clinical and nonclinical settings. In conversation she aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where people can name difficult feelings like shame or isolation.
She helps clients explore forgiveness, reconnect with a sense of purpose, and build self-compassion through concrete, manageable actions. Starting therapy is noted as a brave step, and she guides clients through the process at a steady pace. Sessions emphasize real-world coping skills, clearer communication, and options for change that fit each person's life.
Approaches for online care and daily life challenges
Two evidence-based approaches she uses focus on practical problem solving and building stronger daily routines. Problem-solving work breaks down stressful situations into smaller steps and helps identify actions that reduce immediate pressure and create forward momentum. Routine and behavioral strategies focus on small, repeatable habits to lift mood and stabilize daily life, which can be especially helpful for depression and chronic stress.She also emphasizes supportive, conversational work to address feelings like shame, guilt, and isolation by helping people reframe experiences and practice self-compassion. This collaborative process involves the client and therapist deciding together which techniques to try based on goals and what feels most useful in real life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow a fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions are useful when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited, live chat can work for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports shorter, ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving schedules, or other commitments while keeping focus on practical progress.
