Dr. Chenda Moore

Dr. Chenda Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage strong feelings and life disruptions. She draws on seven years of counseling experience and a long career in education to support clients facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, relationship struggles, and major life changes.

Her background includes work as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator across 29 years in education. She also holds a doctorate in educational leadership and a master's degree in counseling. Those roles shaped her practical approach to everyday problems and her focus on emotional and social wellness.

In sessions she concentrates on the needs of the individual. She pays attention to how relationships with family, friends, coworkers, and employers affect mood and behavior. Dr. Moore encourages straightforward conversation about what is not working and what people want to change.

She uses methods drawn from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy to help clients find tools that fit their life. That can mean changing unhelpful thoughts, trying small behavior shifts, or setting short-term goals to build momentum.

Dr. Moore also brings personal perspective as a survivor of genocide and a member of an Asian family. She speaks English and Central Khmer and can discuss cultural factors that shape coping and identity. To begin, she asks people to describe their main concerns so they can pick clear, manageable next steps together.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

The therapist uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused techniques in ways that translate well to remote sessions. Client-centered work emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the person's priorities so they feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or anger. Solution-focused therapy centers on short-term goals and practical steps to create change quickly.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions may shift over time as goals evolve, and the therapist will check in regularly to see which tools are helping.

Many people choose online work because it can fit into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow easier scheduling around school or work. Online sessions also make it easier to try focused coaching or skill practice between meetings and to keep momentum when life gets hectic.
