About Lisa

Lisa Moore is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of practice. She is based in Mississippi and works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, and life transitions.

She prefers practical, evidence-based methods. Sessions are conversational and focused on skills that help with day-to-day problems. She uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness to address thinking patterns, emotional reactions, and behavior choices.

Her background includes long-term work supporting adults through major losses, health challenges, caregiver stress, and blended family issues. She also has experience with aging and geriatric concerns, cancer and hospice related needs, HIV/AIDS, postpartum depression, isolation, and mood disorders. That experience informs how she frames goals and next steps with each person.

In sessions she listens, offers concrete strategies, and helps people find strengths to build on. Conversations often include problem-solving, practicing new responses, and learning ways to manage anger and strong emotions so they cause less harm in relationships and work settings.

People who want straightforward help with behavior, communication, or coping strategies will find a practical approach. To begin, she asks about current challenges and focuses on steps that can be used between sessions.

Approaches used in online sessions and what to expect

Lisa often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in practical online work. CBT focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior with clear exercises and real-life practice. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and commit to actions that match their values, which can reduce the power of anger and resentment.

She also brings client-centered listening into sessions, which means she works collaboratively and helps clients choose which methods feel most useful. Figuring out the right approach is a joint process, and the therapist will check in and adjust methods based on the person's needs and goals.

The specific session formats are not specified here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and let people practice skills in the environments where they live and work. Therapists and licensed professionals typically adapt exercises, worksheets, and mindfulness practices to the online setting so clients can use strategies between sessions.
