Hello -- I am Brian Moore, a therapist and licensed psychologist with over 25 years of experience. I have worked with individuals who are depressed, stressed out or confused about how to make their lives better. Sometimes clients have substance use problems, sometimes relationship problems.
I am a "PhD" clinical psychologist with the training and education that comes with that. Throughout therapy,, I will trust that you know yourself best. I may offer my thoughts, but I won't tell you what to do. My goal is to work along side you. At our first meeting. We will discuss how you want things to be better. I may give you my impressions of how therapy might help. Sometimes I reflect on what we've discussed -- sleep in it -- before I message you back with my thoughts.
Therapy, is essentially us meeting and talking together once a week for several weeks. will talk about you and your lifhow you can begin to live a more fulfilling life. I may suggest particular ways to approaches your difficulties. However, your ideas often work better than mine. Often, with overwhelming problems, we will break them down into more manageable steps. We want you to experience some success and relief as soon as possible.
Therapy can't change everything. However, my experience has taught me to be optimistic about what we can change. Even in the darkest situations, people can and do get better.
Other guidelines: If you need to contact me between sessions, my goal is to respond within 24 hours (48 on weekends). But the reality is I cannot *guarantee* that I will always respond that quickly. I check my messages at least once in the morning and once in the evening.
If you are in a crisis -- when you are emotionally overwhelmed, if you have lost touch with reality, when you are not safe — you must get immediate help. Call 988 or 911. Go to a hospital. Seek out a trusted friend nearby. After you are safe, contact me.
That’s most of it, but not all. I'll be glad to answer any questions. And I'll ask questions to learn mire about you. We'll work out more details as we go.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Brian Moore. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Dr. Moore has been excellent and is easy to talk to. He reserves judgment and allows you to speak openly. I’ve only had a few sessions with Dr. Moore but they’ve certainty paid dividends thus far. I look forward to future sessions and gaining more insights from Dr. More.
