I am the Founder of EQ Therapy (eqtherapy.co), a private practice designed for high-performing clients. I also teach at NYU in their graduate mental health counseling program. My dissertation at Johns Hopkins focused on the mental health experience of intercollegiate student-athletes. I supervise therapists at EQ Therapy who are accepting new clients for individual and couples therapy.

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.
I will meet you where you are. I will do my best to help you feel comfortable, safe, and at ease. There is no judgement.
Welcome to the start of your therapeutic journey. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) living in Denver, Colorado! I grew up in the Philadelphia area and moved to CO when I fell in love with all it has to offer! I am a Certified ADHD-Clinical Services Provider. As someone with ADHD myself, I understand how it can impact one's life. I have much experience working with clients to cope with how ADHD impacts anxiety & depression. I also specialize in examining how one's queer and neurodivergent identities can compound the trauma of growing up in a world that does not support either identity.
Along with being a therapist, I am a crafter, mother, gardener, queer, neurodivergent, and lover of all things fantasy!
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 16 years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life experiences and challenges. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with diverse populations and address many different areas of mental health and personal growth.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Salida
Searching for therapists in Salida starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, or a life transition. As you compare therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, what sessions may feel like, and whether they have experience with the concerns you want to address.
In a smaller city like Salida, the number of local in-person therapists may be limited. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Colorado. Consider what fits your schedule, whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions, and how soon a therapist is accepting new clients. Reading profiles before you book can also help you compare communication style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is available.
Therapy in Salida can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready.
