About David
David Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with seven years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and related struggles. He also supports people dealing with relationship strain, grief, career pressure, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and questions about identity and self-esteem.
David began his clinical work in 2018 in a state psychiatric hospital, and he also worked at a community mental health crisis center. Over the last three years he has focused on addictions, emotional dysregulation, anxiety and depression, and men's mental health and recovery. That background gave him a lot of practice managing high-intensity situations and safety planning.
In sessions he uses plain, problem-focused methods. He draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to spot thoughts that feed anger and anxiety. He uses dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Mindfulness practice and narrative approaches help people change unhelpful stories they tell themselves.
He also uses motivational interviewing when someone is weighing change, and feedback-informed methods to adjust the work as it progresses. Those tools are applied in ways that aim to lower reactivity, improve communication, and reduce the grip of past trauma on present life.
David asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time; the exact cost varies by location.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to remote work
Client-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches focus on practical problems and specific skills. Client-centered elements mean the therapist listens to what matters most and builds goals from the client’s priorities. CBT helps identify thinking patterns and teaches step-by-step strategies for changing behaviors that fuel anger and anxiety.Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers clear skills for managing intense emotions. Those include distress-tolerance steps, grounding techniques, and interpersonal effectiveness practices that help reduce reactive responses in day-to-day life. Mindfulness practice is used alongside these methods to increase present-moment awareness and reduce automatic reactivity.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and to adjust the plan as work progresses. That means checking in about what helps, what doesn’t, and shifting techniques when needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. In general, remote work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer quicker check-ins when stress spikes, or avoid travel time. Those practical benefits can help people maintain steady work on anger, emotion regulation, and related challenges.
