About Moriah

Dr. Moriah Taylor helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and pregnancy and childbirth concerns. She listens without judgment and partners with each person to set clear, manageable goals. Sessions focus on practical skills for coping, improving relationships, and building emotional safety. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 19 years of experience.

Dr. Taylor uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. She also works with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for people processing traumatic memories. Conversations are collaborative - she checks in about what helps and adjusts plans as needed.

Her approach blends skill teaching with empathic listening. She can coach on communication, mindfulness, and interpersonal skills or simply act as a steady sounding board during hard times. Practical tools are a common part of sessions so people leave with things they can try between meetings.

Dr. Taylor holds a doctorate in human and organizational psychology and is a certified yoga instructor. Those interests inform a whole-person view of care that includes stress reduction and movement practices when appropriate. She is a parent and enjoys hiking, kayaking, and reading.

Before scheduling a live session, clients are asked to confirm current session options because availability can change. People who want suggestions on books or resources can request recommendations during an appointment.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Dr. Taylor commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. EMDR supports processing distressing memories by pairing guided attention with brief eye movements or similar techniques to reduce the emotional charge of those memories.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening, validation, and collaboration so clients feel heard while they set goals. Finding the right approach is a team effort - the therapist will talk with each person about needs, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adjust the plan over time.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats can change. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow a calmer check-in during a short break, or let someone choose a session rhythm that fits their schedule. Therapists and licensed professionals will discuss how to pace work, which methods to prioritize, and practical ways to practice skills between meetings.
