Dr. Warren Moore, LCSW

Dr. Warren Moore is a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina with 21 years of experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and the everyday problems that follow. He invites clients into a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk through their struggles and take practical next steps.

He helps people who are wrestling with anger, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, and life transitions. He also works with those facing grief, parenting challenges, eating issues, addiction, and identity concerns related to LGBT matters. Additional areas of focus include adoption and foster care, hospice and end-of-life issues, infidelity, veteran and armed forces issues, multicultural concerns, and prejudice and discrimination.

Dr. Moore uses familiar, evidence-informed methods in sessions. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and move toward meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build new coping skills. He also integrates client-centered listening and techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when useful.

Sessions are practical and goal-oriented while staying attentive to emotion and experience. He encourages small, doable changes that fit into everyday life. People often start by naming one problem to work on and then build from there.

Signing up begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability. Dr. Moore recognizes that starting therapy takes courage and supports each person at their own pace.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Dr. Moore commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking actions that match those values even when uncomfortable emotions are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and teaches coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Dr. Moore works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, needs, and preferences. He will discuss options and adjust techniques over time so the work fits what the person hopes to achieve.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can attend from wherever they are. Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep momentum between sessions and practice new skills in everyday life.
