About David

David Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with seven years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, relationship concerns, grief, self-esteem struggles, career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes. David also focuses on attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, communication problems, dissociation, and family of origin concerns.

He began his clinical work in 2018 in a state psychiatric hospital, supporting people with severe mental illness. At the same time he worked at a community mental health crisis center. Over the past three years he has focused on addiction, emotional regulation, anxiety, depression, men’s mental health, recovery, and batterer intervention work.

In sessions he uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral strategies and dialectical behavior techniques. He also draws on mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and narrative approaches to help people reshape the stories they tell about themselves. That often means practicing skills, testing new behaviors, and noticing how thoughts and feelings influence choices.

People who feel stuck after a change in work, relationships, or health may find his approach direct and practical. He aims to help people identify patterns that limit them and build steps forward. Sessions combine listening, feedback, and skill practice rather than abstract lectures.

David’s practice is grounded in observable steps: mapping problems, trying small experiments, and revising plans based on what works. He asks for clarity about clients' goals and tracks progress so sessions stay focused on making everyday life more manageable.

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can describe what matters most. Online sessions using this approach let people talk through goals and get feedback while keeping the process focused on their priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. In an online setting CBT often means identifying unhelpful thinking, practicing new responses between sessions, and reviewing what changed at the next meeting.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical skills for emotional regulation and crisis coping. Delivered remotely, DBT tools include brief coaching on skills, tracking practice exercises, and using sessions to rehearse responses to difficult situations.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to try based on goals, current challenges, and personal preferences. That selection can change as progress and needs become clearer.

Specific session formats are not listed in the supplied biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support steady practice of skills between meetings and clearer tracking of progress over time.
