About Carolyn

Carolyn Moore is a licensed clinical social worker who uses direct, person-focused methods to help people facing stress, anxiety, mood challenges, and life transitions. She draws on two decades of experience in Florida to create clear, practical plans for change. Her work emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and steady support in conversations that matter to clients.

Carolyn often starts by listening and getting a clear picture of what feels hardest. From there she blends approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques and emotionally-focused work to make small, manageable changes.

Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative and geared to fit each person’s life and goals. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns, including family matters, grief and loss, self-esteem and motivation, addictions, sleep and eating issues, and career or life-purpose questions. She also has experience with aging and geriatric needs, cancer-related challenges, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and first responder and veteran issues.

Carolyn tailors treatment plans to the individual rather than following a one-size-fits-all script. She uses motivational interviewing and narrative approaches when helpful to explore values and habits. The aim is to build confidence, improve coping, and find practical steps forward.

Clients who prefer remote options can work by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability. Her FL LCSW license is listed as FL LCSW Sw16965.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Carolyn commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and helping clients set their own pace. This approach is useful for building trust and clarifying what matters most to a person. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes. CBT helps with anxiety, mood challenges, sleep, and habits that interfere with daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Carolyn will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and day-to-day limits to decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process helps shape a treatment plan that can change as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to keep regular sessions, follow up between appointments, and use tools learned in therapy in real time. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and conversations to each format so clients can get practical support where they are.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
