About Shawn
Shawn Moore is a licensed marriage and family therapist, LMFT, practicing in California with seven years of clinical experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, and the strain of life changes. Shawn focuses on helping clients find practical ways to manage tough moments and increase everyday functioning.
Shawn uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and solution-focused methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new responses. He encourages clear, concrete steps - short experiments between sessions and specific skills to practice. Sessions are aimed at making problems more manageable rather than labeling a person by a diagnosis.
He also draws on existential and psychodynamic ideas to explore meaning and recurring life patterns when those topics come up. That can include looking at values, relationships, and older life experiences that affect current choices. Shawn balances these perspectives with actionable goals so therapy stays practical.
People who contact him can expect a calm, straightforward approach that emphasizes the client’s own strengths. He often helps with workplace stress, social anxiety, caregiver burden, isolation, and issues common to young adults. Language of sessions is English, and international clients are not accepted.
To begin, Shawn asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. He uses a subscription payment model that can be canceled at any time and notes that fees vary by location.

He combines short-term skill building with occasional exploration of deeper life patterns when it helps reach agreed goals.
