John Moore

John Moore is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with four decades of experience. He aims to make the first steps toward help feel straightforward and manageable. He speaks plainly, is direct when needed, and brings a relaxed manner that can ease tense conversations.

Moore focuses on common life pressures like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and problems with sleep or eating. He also helps people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, and issues tied to attachment and adoption. He works with career changes, anger, intimacy questions, and attention-related concerns such as ADHD.

His approach centers on what will help each person move forward. He often uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and actions. He also draws on mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to help people notice what matters to them and take small, practical steps.

Moore's work spans many settings over his career, including outpatient and inpatient care. People who want straightforward guidance and a mix of practical skills and reflective practices may find his style a good match.

How different approaches guide online work

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and body sensations without judgment and can reduce reactivity to stress and intense emotions. It can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and managing cravings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them while accepting difficult feelings, which can help with depression, life transitions, and chronic worry.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to identify which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That means experimenting, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time in a collaborative way.

Confirm current session options before booking, since the biography does not list specific online formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. They can also let someone participate without needing to be on camera if that helps them engage. Licensed professionals adapt exercises like mindfulness practice, behavioral experiments, and values-guided actions to work in remote sessions so progress continues between meetings.
