About Chenda
Dr. Chenda Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress and anxiety and navigate major life changes. She explains things plainly and focuses on what each person needs in the moment.
Sessions are guided by practical goals and a respect for each client’s background and story. Dr. Moore holds a master’s degree in counseling and a doctorate in educational leadership.
She spent 29 years in education as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator.
Background and approach
That experience shaped how she listens and how she supports people through transitions and relationship challenges. Her work often addresses grief, parenting strain, communication problems, and family-related concerns. She also helps with trauma and abuse, addictions, eating and sleeping concerns, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar.
Her approach is adaptable to what a person brings to the room. In sessions she uses client-centered methods to follow the client’s lead, cognitive behavioral tools to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and solution-focused techniques to build small, concrete steps forward. Conversations are practical and aimed at improving day-to-day functioning.
Dr. Moore is from an Asian background and is a survivor of genocide, which informs her understanding of resilience and cultural context. She speaks English and Central Khmer and brings that cultural sensitivity into her work.
How these approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and following what matters most to the client. In practice this means sessions focus on the person’s goals and priorities, and the therapist adapts the pacing and topics to match those needs.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and replaces them with more useful ways of thinking and acting. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress by teaching practical skills to manage symptoms.
Solution-focused therapy looks for small, immediate steps that move a person toward their goals. It can be useful when someone wants short-term changes or clearer, actionable plans for daily life.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video can be useful for deeper conversations and nonverbal cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports brief updates or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit care into a busy life and maintain momentum between meetings.
