About David

David Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with seven years of experience. He works with adults who struggle with stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, trauma, relationship patterns, and issues like codependency and attachment. He also addresses concerns such as anger, grief, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and career stress.

David began his clinical work in 2018 in a state psychiatric hospital and a community mental health crisis center. Those roles involved supporting people with severe mental illness and acute crisis needs. Over the past three years he has focused on addiction recovery, emotional regulation, and men’s mental health concerns.

In sessions he blends practical skills with reflective work. He uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change thinking patterns. He uses dialectical behavior approaches to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills.

Mindfulness practice and narrative work appear often in his approach. Mindfulness is used to help people notice how they react in relationships and day-to-day life. Narrative methods help people rewrite how they understand difficult events and their role in them.

He also uses motivational interviewing when readiness for change varies. That method supports small steps and clearer goals. David integrates feedback-informed methods so the work can be adjusted based on how clients experience progress.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

David frequently draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when working with issues like anxiety, addiction, mood problems, and difficulties with emotional regulation. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence to change behavior. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions.

He also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work grounded in the client's concerns and goals. That approach emphasizes listening and responding to what matters most to the person, and it complements the more structured techniques. Choosing the right mix of methods is a collaborative process; he will work with clients to identify what fits their needs and preferences as sessions progress.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove the need to travel to appointments. Talk with him when scheduling so you can match session length and timing to your daily life.
