I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a safe, judgment-free space.

I am a licensed therapist, with over a decade of experience in the mental health field and doctoral-level education specializing in trauma-informed care. I am trained in multiple disciplines including but not limited to EMDR, TF-CBT, and CPT. My integrative approach exists to treat various mental health concerns while passionately working to help individuals, couples, and families of all diverse backgrounds and populations heal.

I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be your authentic self. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and accepted without judgment. I strive to be warm, affirming, and approachable, while bringing curiosity, compassion, and even a little humor into our work together.

I see therapy as a partnership—we'll work collaboratively to understand what's bringing you in, recognize your strengths, and build practical tools to help you navigate life's challenges. I value the whole person and recognize that your experiences, relationships, culture, identity, values, and environment all play an important role in your well-being.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking for personal growth, I'm honored to walk alongside you as you build resilience, confidence, and a life that feels more aligned with who you are.

I’m Thomas Moore, LPCC, a licensed professional clinical counselor providing therapy for individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, identity development, and complex relational patterns. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in repeating cycles such as overthinking, people pleasing, emotional shutdown, intense reactions, or difficulty maintaining stable relationships even when they logically understand what they should do. My goal is to help you translate insight into real change.

My approach is structured and compassionate. I integrate evidence based methods including cognitive restructuring, emotional regulation training, interpersonal effectiveness skills, and trauma informed therapy. Sessions focus on understanding why your brain reacts the way it does and building practical tools you can actually use outside the therapy room. This is not only about talking through problems but learning how to respond differently when they show up in real life.

I work well with clients who want more than passive support and are ready to build skills, increase self awareness, and interrupt patterns that no longer serve them.

What clients should know before starting

Therapy with me is collaborative and active and you will learn strategies rather than only venting. We will work on understanding both the emotional and neurological side of your reactions. Sessions focus on present day functioning while also addressing past experiences that still affect you. I may gently challenge patterns when it supports growth while maintaining a supportive and respectful space. Progress often comes from small repeated changes rather than sudden breakthroughs.

If you are looking for therapy that combines validation with practical change, we will likely work well together.

Introduction

I primarily use a cognitive behavioral approach. My focus area of practice is helping clients improve their lives and find meaningful change.

How I help clients reach goals

Change does not necessarily take a long time. We're 'shooting for the moon' right away. What's the worst that could happen?

My journey to becoming a provider

Helping others help themselves is an absolute privilege! I'd pay them to do this work (but please don't tell them that.) How did I get here? It's a long story. I originally went to college to be a journalist, but changed to broadcasting. Dumb. I needed to jumpstart my life, so I changed to this profession. Talk about purpose and meaning!

I believe therapy is most effective when you feel accepted, understood, and empowered. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself while also feeling challenged to grow. I meet clients where they are, recognizing that everyone comes to therapy with unique experiences, strengths, and goals.
