About Moriah

Dr. Moriah Taylor helps people facing midlife questions and common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 19 years of experience. Her style is collaborative and nonjudgmental, and she aims to help people find more meaning and satisfaction in life.

Her approach blends practical skills and emotional work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is offered for emotion regulation and coping skills. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is part of her work with trauma and past distress. Dr. Taylor also practices client-centered methods that keep the client's goals central.

She often teaches mindfulness, emotion regulation, and interpersonal skills in sessions. Sometimes the work focuses on concrete problem solving like communication or sleep habits. Other times it centers on processing grief, trauma, or identity-related questions, including gender and sexual identity concerns.

Dr. Taylor holds a doctorate in human and organizational psychology and is a certified yoga instructor. She is a parent of a teen and enjoys traveling, kayaking, hiking, animals, and reading. She can suggest books or authors that might be helpful for particular situations.

Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Because her schedule can change quickly, she asks people to confirm session options and timing before booking. To begin, select the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule based on therapist availability.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting the person where they are, helping clients set goals and guide sessions at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to work through traumatic memories and their emotional impact by combining focused recall with bilateral stimulation techniques.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then suggest methods to try. Plans can be adjusted as needs change so the work stays practical and relevant.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people continue consistent care when managing life transitions, grief, or ongoing therapy goals. Licensed professionals help clients match approach and scheduling to what feels most useful.
