Laura Moore, LCMHC

Laura Moore is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 25 years of experience. She supports people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, anger, self-esteem, and motivation. Laura centers therapy on each person's strengths and choices, helping clients move toward a more satisfying life.

Her work is practical and conversational. She listens to the story someone brings, then helps them notice patterns that get in the way. Sessions focus on building skills for managing emotions, improving communication, and boosting confidence. She also addresses intimacy-related concerns and grief when they come up in the course of therapy.

Over a long career Laura has worked with a wide range of issues, including trauma and abuse, caregiving stress, chronic illness, body image, and identity concerns such as LGBT topics. She also helps people facing life transitions like parenting challenges, career changes, or aging-related stress. Her additional interests include attachment and abandonment themes, adoption and foster care, and alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink.

Therapy draws on several approaches to fit the person in front of her. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered work, and existential ideas as tools to help people clarify values and take practical steps. Laura invites collaboration and sets goals together with each person.

To begin, she asks people to describe what matters to them most and what they’d like to change. From there she works with clients to try strategies, adjust plans, and track what helps over time.

Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life

Laura draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shape online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters to them and take action consistent with those values, even when emotions are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Laura treats the choice of methods as collaborative work. She will talk with each person about goals, experiment with strategies, and adjust the plan based on what is most helpful for them.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or between obligations. It also supports continuing work through life transitions when coming into an office would be difficult. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt exercises, homework, and skill practice to an online setting so progress stays practical and focused.
