Catherine Moore, LCSW

Catherine Moore is an LCSW who brings decades of clinical experience to therapy. She combines practical techniques with a warm, straightforward style. Her work emphasizes clear goals and steps to help people navigate difficult moments, including midlife questions and changing priorities.

She trained in social work, earning a Master of Social Work from Columbia University. Catherine has practiced for forty years and is licensed as an LCSW in New York and Florida. Her background includes treating long-standing anxiety, depression, and relationship and intimacy-related concerns.

In sessions she draws on a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and humanistic ideas. That means she uses behavior-focused strategies and attention to relationships, while listening to a person’s bigger life story. Sessions are goal-oriented and practical, with emphasis on skills people can use outside the room.

Catherine also has experience helping people facing grief, addiction, parenting stresses, career crossroads, and compassion fatigue. She pays attention to family of origin issues, communication problems, and challenges like dissociation or impulsivity when they arise.

Clients can expect a compassionate, direct approach. Catherine works to identify patterns, try manageable changes, and measure progress along the way. Her background supports a steady, experienced guide through life transitions and midlife concerns.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work

Many of the techniques Catherine uses are described as evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors through practical exercises and homework; this helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Interpersonal-style work looks at patterns in relationships and communication to improve connection and address intimacy-related problems.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose which methods to try first, adjusting strategies based on goals and what feels useful. Sessions are framed around clear steps and measurable progress so people know how things are changing over time.

The practical benefits of online therapy include greater ability to fit sessions into busy schedules and fewer barriers related to travel. If you are considering online options, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find remote work helpful for keeping continuity during life transitions and for accessing experienced licensed professionals regardless of location.
