Lisa Moore, LICSW, LCSW

Lisa Moore is an experienced licensed clinical social worker who offers steady, practical support for people facing stress, loss, and major life changes. She holds LICSW and LCSW credentials and brings a calm, listening approach to sessions. Lisa focuses on clear, doable steps rather than jargon. Her style aims to help people find strengths and use them to feel better over time.

With twenty-five years of professional practice in Mississippi and surrounding areas, Lisa has worked with concerns such as depression, anxiety, grief, anger, and trauma and abuse. She also helps people handle parenting worries, relationship and family problems, low self-esteem, and coping with life transitions. Additional focus areas include caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, cancer and hospice related concerns, and postpartum mood concerns.

Lisa draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She uses client-centered conversations to clarify goals, cognitive behavioral techniques to change troubling thoughts and behaviors, and mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy are also part of her toolkit when helpful.

Sessions are described as collaborative: Lisa listens first, then helps set realistic steps and practice skills between meetings. She emphasizes building on existing strengths and teaching tools that can be used in daily life. People often come for help with coping, decision-making, and finding steadier routines during stressful times.

Her message to prospective clients is straightforward and encouraging: small, consistent steps lead to change. Lisa invites people to begin with a short matching process and schedule a time to talk about what matters most to them.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, grief, and life transitions by focusing on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to lower reactivity and improve emotion regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lisa will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She tailors techniques over time so sessions focus on what helps in daily life, whether that's managing upsetting thoughts, improving communication, or coping with illness or caregiving demands.

Details about session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when needed. It also supports practicing skills in real-world settings and keeping momentum between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt tools like ACT and CBT to an online setting so clients can learn and use strategies between sessions.
