Laura Moore

Laura Moore is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 22 years helping people navigate hard moments. She practices in Florida and supports adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, career setbacks, and relationship concerns. Laura brings a calm, steady presence and aims to be a listening ear and practical partner in change.

She meets people where they are and focuses on clear, doable steps. Sessions often include talking through current problems, building coping skills, and practicing new ways to handle stress and strong emotions. Laura uses approaches that center the person and emphasize practical strategies for day-to-day life.

Her background includes long experience with trauma and loss, attention differences such as ADHD, and autism spectrum concerns. She also works with people dealing with caregiving stress, chronic illness and end-of-life issues, parenting pressures, and identity or intimacy-related struggles. She names compassion fatigue, codependency, and body image among the issues she helps address.

In sessions Laura aims to balance empathy with goal-focused work. She often blends client-centered conversations with tools from cognitive behavioral and solution-focused approaches. Motivational interviewing and mindfulness techniques are also part of her toolkit when they fit the person's goals.

Starting therapy with Laura begins with a short matching process and scheduling a first appointment. She approaches each case with practical plans, steady support, and attention to the life circumstances that shape the work together.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, validation, and building a respectful working relationship. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and simple attention skills to reduce reactivity and improve coping with strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then use techniques from these approaches that fit the situation. That collaborative process helps shape the focus of sessions over time.

Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking so you know what to expect. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice coping skills in everyday settings and bring real-life examples directly into the session for problem-solving.
