About John
John Moore is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with four decades of experience. He helps people who are overwhelmed by stress, anger, anxiety, depression, or life changes. He keeps sessions straightforward and practical so worried parents can follow along easily.
He uses everyday conversation to understand what is happening and what needs to change. John often relies on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and habits.
Background and approach
He mixes in mindfulness and acceptance approaches when they suit the problem at hand. John has worked in outpatient, inpatient, residential, and emergency hospital settings. That variety shaped his ability to respond calmly in tense moments and to shift strategies when a situation calls for it.
He aims to be direct when needed and relaxed otherwise, using humor carefully and respectfully. In sessions he focuses on concrete steps people can try between meetings. That might mean new ways to handle anger, habits to improve sleep, or simple communication exercises for strained relationships.
He encourages steady action and checks progress in a clear, practical way. People who choose him can expect a collaborative, no-nonsense approach. He will help identify goals, outline next steps, and adjust methods based on how things are going.
His style suits those who want guidance plus real-world tools.

Approaches that guide online sessions
John commonly blends cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients change unhelpful patterns. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and shifting thoughts and behaviors that worsen stress, anger, or mood problems. Acceptance and commitment therapy teaches skills to notice difficult feelings, accept them when needed, and take actions that match personal values.He also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how past relationships shape current reactions. That perspective can help people who struggle with communication, trust, or intimacy-related issues. Together these approaches give practical steps and perspective work to manage emotions and rebuild day-to-day routines.
Finding the right fit is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try first and will adjust based on goals and results. Clients help shape the pace, focus, and tools used in sessions so work feels relevant and doable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexible options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more nuance is helpful. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, mood tracking, or stepping through coping ideas between meetings. These choices make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy schedules.
