About David
David Moore is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with seven years of clinical experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, relationship concerns, grief, self-esteem, career issues, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. Sessions are described in straightforward terms and focus on practical change.
He began clinical work in 2018 at a state psychiatric hospital and simultaneously at a community mental health crisis center. That early work involved people with severe mental illness and frequent crisis needs. Over the last three years he has focused on addictions, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, batterer intervention work, men's mental health, and recovery.
David uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with dialectical behavior strategies and client-centered methods. He also draws on mindfulness practice, narrative techniques, and motivational interviewing. In sessions he helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, try different responses, and rewrite problematic personal narratives.
His approach emphasizes concrete skills such as emotion regulation, exposure practice for trauma-related avoidance, and motivational techniques for substance use change. Mindfulness exercises are used to increase awareness of triggers and reactions. Narrative work helps people examine how past events shape current choices.
People who prefer a straightforward, practical focus on skills and behavior typically find this style useful. He asks about current goals, tracks progress, and adjusts methods based on what is working. Prospective clients are encouraged to confirm session formats and scheduling details before booking.
How his approaches translate to online work
David uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT sessions tend to focus on concrete goals, homework practice, and measurable changes in thinking and activity levels. He also applies Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills work supports people who struggle with intense emotions or impulsive behaviors. Finding the right approach is collaborative. He will discuss goals, try methods that fit a person's needs, and adjust tactics based on progress. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to emphasize. The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness or exposure exercises in real-life settings while discussing them in session. Ask about session length and platform details when arranging the first appointment to match sessions to your schedule and goals.Areas of expertise
