About Melissa
Melissa Moore is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and life transitions. Melissa also addresses issues such as ADHD, parenting strain, workplace stress, and mood disorders.
She trained in counseling psychology and mental health counseling, and has worked in homes, mental health agencies, hospitals, and school settings. That variety informs how she shapes sessions to fit different life circumstances. Sessions focus on concrete steps people can use between meetings as well as the conversations that happen during them.
Her approach combines practical, evidence-based methods with reflective work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps map connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Mindfulness-based skills are used to slow down intense emotions. Motivational Interviewing can help people find reasons to change when they feel stuck.
Melissa also uses narrative and psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences influence current patterns. She brings those ideas into short-term problem solving and longer conversations about identity and values. The work often includes building better communication skills and coping tools for stress and sleep difficulties.
She speaks English and practices in North Carolina. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location. To begin, clients use the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How Melissa’s approaches work online
Melissa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors; this can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems. Mindfulness Therapy is used to teach simple attention and grounding skills that reduce emotional reactivity and improve day-to-day focus. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and needs to clarify their reasons for change and set small achievable goals.Figuring out which methods fit best is part of the work. Melissa will collaborate with each person to match approaches to their goals, needs, and preferences rather than imposing a single method. That process may shift as therapy moves from short-term problem solving to exploring deeper patterns.
