About Laura

Laura Moore is a licensed clinician in North Carolina with 25 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, anger, and self-esteem. She sees people who want clearer direction and more confidence in daily life.

She believes each person is the narrator and editor of their own story. Sessions emphasize strengths and practical steps clients can take between meetings. Laura frames therapy as a partnership where small changes build more satisfying routines and relationships.

Her work draws on several approaches to tailor support to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and taking meaningful action despite difficult feelings.

Laura also uses client-centered methods to create space for people to be heard and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation when feelings become overwhelming. She adapts these ideas to real-life problems like sleep disruption, grief, parenting strain, and work stress.

Practical concerns such as eating patterns, body image, chronic health challenges, or past trauma are addressed with attention to day-to-day coping. She supports people through life changes and complicated relationships, including issues connected to adoption, caregiving, or aging. The aim is steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.

Approaches that translate well to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what really matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when anxiety or difficult feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting patterns of thought and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and build better routines. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and understanding so the person feels heard and can develop their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person's goals and preferences. Together they try techniques, note what helps, and adjust the plan to match real-life needs.

The biography does not list specific online session types, so confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. It also makes consistent, skill-focused practice possible between meetings, which supports steady progress over time.
