About Laura
Laura Moore is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 25 years of professional experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, anger, self-esteem, motivation, and confidence. Her style is straightforward and practical, aimed at helping people change how they respond to difficult feelings and situations.
She sees clients as the authors of their own lives and focuses on strengths a person already has. Sessions involve talking through current problems, learning skills that reduce reactivity, and testing new ways of responding. The goal is clearer choices rather than quick fixes.
Laura uses a mix of approaches to match a person’s needs. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values and from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change thought and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
In session, she balances listening with practical tools. Clients can expect gentle challenge alongside concrete exercises to practice between meetings. This includes learning when to step back, how to calm physical arousal, and ways to rebuild strained relationships.
Her broad list of focus areas includes trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, career stress, and concerns connected to identity such as LGBT topics. Additional areas noted include attachment issues, codependency, chronic illness, and aging-related worries. Laura encourages people to try different strategies and notice what helps.
People who want to start are asked to complete an initial questionnaire and schedule a first session to see how the work fits their goals.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Laura commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters most and take actions that align with those values even when feelings are uncomfortable. ACT often helps with lingering anger that gets in the way of relationships or goals.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits that keep problems going. CBT provides practical strategies for changing patterns of thinking and behavior that increase stress or trigger flare-ups.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and will suggest approaches to try. The decision about which methods to use is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are provided, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Different formats can also help when camera time or bandwidth is a concern, or when a brief skills refresh is preferable to a longer meeting.
