About Laura

Laura Moore is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) licensed in North Carolina with 25 years of professional experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, anger, self-esteem, and parenting strain. She also addresses issues tied to intimacy, grief, trauma and abuse, eating and sleep difficulties, and career or life changes.

Her style centers on helping people notice what matters most and take practical steps toward clearer choices. Sessions focus on straightforward conversation and skills you can try between meetings. She uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and existential approaches to shape that work.

Laura blends talk and skill practice. She helps people notice thoughts and patterns, and then tests different ways of responding. That can include tracking behaviors, building coping skills, setting boundaries, and clarifying values so day-to-day choices feel more intentional.

Her background makes her familiar with a wide range of family and parenting concerns, including blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care issues, and caregiving stress. She also has experience with attachment-related concerns, body image, and relationship complexities that involve commitment and codependency.

Sessions are practical and paced to fit adult life. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session options before booking. Laura offers services in English and accepts international clients.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck on them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and parenting stress where values guide everyday choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior, trying small changes, and measuring results. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep or eating concerns, and coping with life transitions.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions combine conversation, skills practice, and real-life tasks so progress can be checked between meetings.

The biography did not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in between errands, or a conversation without needing to travel. It also lets adults continue therapy while living in another country, since she accepts international clients. Practical benefits include scheduling that matches work or caregiving demands and using techniques at home between sessions.
