David Moore, LPC

About David

David Moore is a licensed professional counselor with seven years of clinical experience. He helps people dealing with anger, stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and the confusion that follows big life changes. David works in South Carolina and offers direct, practical help for people who want clearer thinking and steadier emotions.

David began his clinical work in a state psychiatric hospital in 2018, doing hands-on care with people facing severe mental health symptoms.

Background and approach

He also worked at a community crisis center during that period. Those settings built his skill in managing intense situations and short-term crisis work. More recently he spent three years focused on addictions, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, batterer intervention programs, and men's mental health and recovery.

That experience shaped his approach to anger and to patterns that keep people stuck or repeating harmful behaviors. In sessions he uses straightforward methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, narrative techniques, and client-centered work. He also incorporates mindfulness exercises to help people notice patterns and make different choices in the moment.

Motivational interviewing is used when people are weighing change or recovery. People can expect clear goals, homework when it helps, and a focus on practical skills. David aims to help each person rewrite unhelpful stories about themselves and build routines that support calmer days.

He offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging as ways to connect.

How his methods translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building trust. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the person's lead, asks questions, and reflects back so people feel heard and can identify what matters most. It often helps with worries, low mood, and relationship concerns.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Online CBT typically uses short exercises, thought records, and behavioral experiments to reduce anger, anxiety, or depressive patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. Online DBT practice includes skills coaching, mindfulness exercises, and step-by-step skills training useful for intense emotions and impulsive behavior.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try different tools, and adjust the plan based on what works. That collaborative process helps find practical steps that fit daily life.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people work face-to-face when a longer conversation is needed. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging can help with brief updates, skill practice, or support between longer sessions. These formats offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, or recovery routines.
