Approaches that guide online care

Dr. Moore uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help clients address specific problems and build coping skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression and to improve daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and supports the client’s own capacity for insight and self-directed growth. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on current strengths and concrete steps, helping clients set achievable goals and notice small changes that move them forward.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work and is determined collaboratively. She will discuss which methods align with a client’s needs, goals, and preferences and adapt techniques over time so the plan stays relevant and helpful.

Online therapy with Dr. Moore is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit consistent sessions into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings while working toward clearer goals and improved coping.
