About Franklin

Franklin Moore is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. He uses person-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches to offer straightforward, supportive care. He focuses on practical steps that people can try between sessions.

Franklin keeps conversations direct and compassionate so parents can quickly see what to try at home. He draws on six years of counseling experience and a longer history in community mental health roles.

Background and approach

That background shapes a calming, solution-oriented style. Sessions often look at current thoughts and behaviors, and how small shifts can make daily life easier. Franklin works on common parenting and family concerns like stress, communication problems, and grief alongside issues such as anxiety, depression, and addiction.

He also addresses challenges tied to chronic pain, illness, disability, and career pressures. The work includes clear goals, practical strategies, and homework when it helps. His approach blends empathy with skill-based tools.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and change them. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes acceptance and supportive listening to build trust. Sessions are offered in English and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, caregivers select Start Therapy, fill a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on acceptance, listening, and building a trusting relationship. Online sessions using this approach aim to create a calm space where parents and caregivers feel heard and respected, which helps with communication problems and feelings of emptiness.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at current thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. In virtual sessions this often involves short exercises, thought records, and homework that parents can use between meetings to manage stress, anxiety, or mood concerns.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match approaches to a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That can mean starting with listening and support, then adding CBT strategies when concrete change is the priority.

Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make scheduling more flexible for busy families and caregivers. They also allow continuity of care when an in-person visit would be difficult, while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.

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.
