About Gertrude
Gertrude Moore is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, and parenting challenges. Gertrude has supported adoptive and foster families and people affected by domestic violence and other traumatic events.
She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits, learning coping skills, and improving communication. Gertrude draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered and narrative approaches to guide this work.
Her background includes direct work with adolescents and adults in situations of trauma, loss, and life transition. That experience informs her focus on safety, pacing, and concrete skills. She helps people break problems into manageable steps and track small changes over time.
In sessions she may prioritize skill-building for anxiety and stress, strategies for parenting and blended family concerns, or approaches to process grief and past trauma. Practical exercises and homework are used when helpful to reinforce learning between meetings.
Gertrude aims to collaborate with each person to set clear goals and check progress. She pays attention to relational patterns such as attachment or communication problems and supports people working through issues like abandonment, guilt, shame, and isolation. The emphasis is on usable strategies and steady progress rather than quick fixes.
How CBT and Related Approaches Work Online
Gertrude commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT involves short, focused exercises and practical homework that support reducing anxiety or managing stress. It is useful for problems like worry, panic, and persistent negative thinking.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and reflecting to help a person clarify goals and make choices. Mindfulness Therapy may be used to teach present-moment awareness and grounding techniques that reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process may include trying a few techniques and adjusting the plan based on what helps.
