Dr. Brian Moore, Psychologist
About me
I am a licensed psychologist and therapist with over 25 years of clinical experience. As a PhD clinical psychologist, I have a comprehensive education in mental health and ongoing relevant training.
For those exploring therapy for the first time -- welcome! For others, welcome back! Therapy involves talking honestly about yourself in private. Some thoughts or feelings you may have been kept to yourself — maybe for a long time. Sometimes secrets weigh us down. Maybe you feel ashamed and hopeless. But in sharing your ‘inner-self’, your burden lightens a bit. Together, we can begin to understand your life better. Your life can begin to move forward again.
My hope is that your life regains its meaning. My hope is that we begin to build a life worth living.
Each client is different. My therapy approach can differ too, depending on the you and your situation. I will always ask questions about your life and childhood. Often, I'll ask you to consider other points of view and encourage you to do new things. Therapy sessions typically last a little less than an hour. I prefer to meet in video sessions. I find that meeting every week maintains continuity and momentum. We can message each other between sessions through the BetterHelp platform.
Online therapy is as effective as traditional therapy. It can provide easier and more private access to a therapist and more flexible scheduling.
However, while BetterHelp usually costs less than some others therapies, it is still not cheap. Is it worth it? I suggest you try a few sessions (maybe 2-3) and then decide. You may decide that the longer term cost over, say, 3 months or even longer is simply too much. Or after a couple of sessions you may decide that I am not a good fit for you. My expectation is we click and make good progress. But as with anything involving money, you should understand the details of your agreement. The introductory offers can differ situation to situation. I am not involved with this aspect of the program and will refer you to others within BH who handle that.
Finally, therapy is not a quick fix. It is not easy. Making lasting life change may take several months But I won't push for more sessions than necessary. My goal is for you to lead a life without therapy. We will not attempt to fix everything, but I think that together we can make many things better.

Dr. Moore has been excellent and is easy to talk to. He reserves judgment and allows you to speak openly. I’ve only had a few sessions with Dr. Moore but they’ve certainty paid dividends thus far. I look forward to future sessions and gaining more insights from Dr. More.
