About Laura

Laura Moore is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with 22 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, self esteem struggles, grief, and life transitions. Her work also covers a wide range of concerns such as relationship and parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and depression.

She meets people where they are and helps them identify practical next steps. Sessions tend to be collaborative and centered on the person in front of her. Laura uses straightforward techniques so clients can try things between meetings and track small changes over time.

Her background includes long experience with loss, chronic health issues, caregiver stress, and complex family dynamics. She has worked with people dealing with abandonment, body image, codependency, communication problems, and end-of-life concerns. That breadth helps when problems overlap, such as grief combined with anxiety or career strain mixed with parenting stress.

Therapy with Laura often blends client-centered listening with goal-focused tools. She draws on cognitive behavioral methods, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, solution-focused ideas, and trauma-informed work as appropriate. The aim is to build coping skills, strengthen self regard, and improve daily functioning.

She encourages a practical, paced approach. Early sessions typically focus on what feels most urgent and on small steps that can be tried right away. Clients who want clear goals and steady feedback will find that style familiar.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust. Online conversations follow the same idea: the therapist listens, reflects, and helps people find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change them. In online sessions this often means setting homework, practicing techniques between meetings, and reviewing progress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple exercises to reduce reactivity. These practices can be guided in live sessions and assigned as short daily practices to try at home.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as progress is made or new needs emerge.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. In general online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - there is less travel time, sessions can be scheduled around work or caregiving, and shorter check-ins or regular weekly sessions can both be practical depending on needs. The focus is on usable strategies that translate into everyday routines.
