About Dwight

Dr. Dwight Moore helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship troubles, and depression find clearer ways forward. He greets clients with a calm, straightforward style.

He aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone worried about family or parenting concerns. The tone is practical and encouraging rather than clinical. In sessions he creates space for honest conversation and straightforward problem solving.

He listens to what matters most and helps people sort next steps.

Background and approach

He emphasizes skills that can be used between meetings as well as talking through difficult feelings during appointments. With four decades of experience, he draws on several methods to fit each person’s needs. He often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and build different habits.

He also uses emotionally-focused methods to look at patterns in close relationships and increase connection. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies are part of his toolkit when someone wants help setting goals and staying motivated. These approaches keep work practical and goal-oriented while still attending to feelings.

He holds the Washington psychologist credential WA Psychologist PY00002436. Sessions are offered in English and available to international clients by online formats. The practice prioritizes clear next steps so people leave each session with something useful to try.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's priorities. It helps people feel heard, clarifies what they want to change, and guides the conversation around their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions influence one another and offers specific exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps partners and individuals notice interaction patterns and build stronger emotional connection.

Finding the right approach is a joint effort. The therapist will work with clients to decide whether CBT, EFT, or a client-centered path fits best based on their goals and preferences. This collaborative process means methods can be adjusted over time as needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around busy family lives and work commitments. They also let people use therapeutic tools between meetings and stay connected when in-person visits are not practical. For many, that flexibility makes consistent progress more achievable.

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.
