About Moriah
Dr. Moriah Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, relationship strain, and issues tied to identity and sexual orientation. She also helps with sleep and eating concerns, grief, parenting strain, and career-related stress.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and respond to what a person brings. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach concrete skills for managing strong feelings. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for processing traumatic memories.
Sessions often include skill building in emotion regulation, mindfulness practice, and work on communication and relationship patterns. She can offer coaching-style support for life changes and career questions alongside therapy. Reading recommendations are sometimes part of the plan when they fit a person’s goals.
Dr. Taylor holds a doctorate in human and organizational psychology and is a certified yoga instructor. She mentions parenting a teen and enjoying travel, kayaking, hiking, and animals. Those personal details inform a down-to-earth style rather than clinical distance.
Her stated aim is to help people find a more meaningful life and better manage intense emotions and behaviors. Prospective clients are asked to complete the intake steps for initial matching and scheduling before booking a first session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Taylor uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in her clinical work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening carefully and shaping sessions around what the person brings. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies for changing unhelpful patterns. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that are useful when anger or intense feelings arise.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, how they react to different techniques, and what fits best with their daily life. That discussion guides which methods are used and how sessions are structured over time.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, as specific options are not listed in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when needed. It can also let clients practice skills and mindfulness exercises between meetings and bring real-life situations into sessions for immediate problem-solving.
