About David
David Moore is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, and the fallout of trauma. He works with adults who are trying to regain control over mood, behavior, and relationships. His approach is straightforward and goal-focused, aimed at helping people feel steadier day to day.
David began clinical work in 2018 at a state psychiatric hospital and a community mental health crisis center. Those early roles involved supporting people with severe mental illness and intense crisis needs.
Background and approach
Over the past seven years he has moved into work with addiction, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, and men's mental health and recovery. In sessions he uses clear, practical tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. He also uses client-centered and narrative methods to help people reframe painful stories and find new patterns of coping.
Mindfulness practices are woven into his treatment to help with grounding and awareness. David pays attention to how life events, attachment patterns, and family background shape present difficulties. He often helps people facing relationship strain, communication problems, codependency, and challenges like abandonment or control issues.
He also supports those coping with grief, career changes, bipolar mood shifts, and ADHD-related struggles. David practices in South Carolina and offers sessions in English. He provides a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and build clarity about their goals and values.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches clear, evidence-informed skills for shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by setting small, doable practice tasks between sessions.
Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can be useful when strong reactions, impulsivity, or relationship conflicts get in the way of daily life.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that match their goals, preferences, and what works in real life. Plans are adjusted as progress and needs become clearer.
Online sessions can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and skill coaching. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into different schedules and life demands.
