About Petra
Petra Morey is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Michigan with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people regain balance when stress, anger, or relationship strain make daily life harder. Petra aims for clear, practical steps that people can use right away.
Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help people notice what matters and build stronger emotional connection.
Background and approach
She also draws on the Gottman Method and solution-focused ideas when couples want concrete communication skills. Sessions move at a practical pace. Petra helps clients learn new ways to manage anger, handle life changes, and improve intimacy or communication.
She explains skills in simple language and practices them together during sessions so people feel confident using them afterward. Petra has a background in health and human services and holds a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. Her prior work includes a broad range of mental health settings, offering experience with complex needs and long-term care.
That foundation shapes how she plans treatment and supports steady progress. People who prefer an active, skills-based style often find her helpful. Petra encourages realistic goals, steady steps, and ongoing feedback so therapy fits each person's life and priorities.

How Petra’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small steps toward them while learning to accept hard feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, anger, and major life transitions by focusing on actions that matter. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional connection and patterns between partners or in close relationships; it helps people notice interaction cycles and practice new, more supportive responses. The Gottman Method offers practical communication and conflict tools drawn from couple research to reduce hostility and rebuild trust.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Petra collaborates with each person to identify goals and then matches techniques to those goals. She welcomes feedback and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds so therapy stays focused and relevant to the client's needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video allows face-to-face practice of communication skills and body language. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a quicker check-in. Live chat and text can be used for brief support, homework review, or when written reflection helps. These options make it easier to schedule consistent sessions and to try different formats as needs change.
