My name is Moriah E. McCarthy. I am a licensed mental health counselor that believes in a holistic and blended approach with respect for the mind-body-spirit connection. Mental health is a pivotal component of all wellness.
Treatment with me blends the exploration of the past and the deepening of insight with more concrete interventions and a forward-focused momentum. I use psycho-education and skills-building to empower clients to support themselves after counseling. Strengths and weaknesses are brought forward to integrate thoughts, feelings and actions into the whole self. I believe in collaborating with clients throughout the process. Clients feel supported and also challenged to take responsibility for their own success.
When you work with me, I hope that we partner in your treatment. I value your feedback, appreciate you opening to possibilities, and taking action for greater stability. My approach is best described as client-centered and creative. Thank you so much.

Mariah is LIFE CHANGING. I can't believe I was matched with such a perfect person! Also I wish I would've started therapy many many years ago. Might've saved me a lot of pain I caused myself trying to run from things or self medicate.

I was looking for a great therapist on BetterHelp, and finally came upon moriah McCarthy. She is a notably great listener and great at addressing whatever my main needs or concerns may be. She is not judge mental whatsoever and she is always happy to talk to me which I appreciate a lot. Definitely one of my favorite therapists I have ever encountered.

I think Moriah has great energy and knowledge, but I'm not sure if I'm vibing with her yet!
Written on May 17, 2022 after therapy with Moriah for 3 weeks on issues concerning relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, and compassion fatigue
-She's supportive but impartial, which is a refreshing change of pace for me.
-She never tries to make decisions for me, but helps me to be more confident in my own choices.
-She stays practical when I'm whimsical, and stays hopeful when I'm cynical.
I've never seen a proper therapist before her, but I find it difficult to imagine someone being better at this than she is.

Moriah has been a huge help this past year! I’ve had so many thoughtful conversations with her that have really helped me work on anxiety, coping, and confidence. She’s very helpful and you can tell she’s focused and present in all of our sessions.

This is my first time to talk to a professional and I really like how the things are going every discussion. At first, I wasn't expecting so much about live sessions but after going through few of them, I believe it really helps me to go through what I am feeling right now.
Written on Nov 17, 2021 after therapy with Moriah for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family conflicts, and coping with life changes
Moriah has helped me tremendously and I would recommend her to anyone !! I was initially so nervous about trying therapy and talking to someone but Moriah’s warm and fun personality, whilst maintaining utmost professionalism made me feel comfortable.
She genuinely listens, is honest, direct, and is not judgemental. I am very impressed with how quickly she picked up on the issues I needed work on and how applicable her advice and guidance was. It really showed how well trained and knowledgeable she is in her role. She challenges my thoughts and sheds light onto a lot of thoughts and behaviours I have been unaware of until now.
I trust her and am lucky to have been matched with her

This isn’t the first time I have had therapy, In the past I have had help from other therapists but feel I wasn’t getting anywhere.
With Moriah I look forward to our next sessions and telling her how much she has helped me in the previous week.
I feel I have a really good connection with her, she listens, really listens! I feel very supported by Moriah and would highly recommend her to friends and family if therapy is what they feel they need.
I can’t fault her, she’s honestly the best therapist I have ever had! She’s great!

Moriah is understanding and she tries to help you through what you are experiencing in the moment. She genuinely wants to help you uncover your inner thoughts and grow from them. She is really flexible when it comes to communicating as well. I don't think I'd be seeking this out if she didn't try to hear my story and understand me for me.

I have been to counselling before and Moriah is everything I have ever looked for in a counsellor! She is supportive, caring and understanding. I particularly appreciate her honesty, humour and trustworthiness. Her holistic approach has helped me to see things from a different perspective and helped me when I was struggling the most. I am truly grateful to have met Moriah.

It was my first time having counselling, so I wasn't really sure about what to expect. I shouldn't have been worried as Moriah made me feel at ease within the first 10 seconds of our first video call.
Not only is she friendly, easy to open up too and someone who you can have a laugh with, but she was so wise, full of incredible advice and has an awesome holistic approach. I am so grateful for her guidance and would recommend Moriah and BetterHelp to everyone.

I absolutely LOVE Moriah! She’s made my first experience of counselling really great. I love her spiritual outlook and her ‘comic relief’ approach. She makes me feel at ease and I feel completely able to talk openly with her about whatever’s going on.

Moriah is respectful and a great listener. I’ve been to counselling before but I feel like Moriah has understood my perspective the best. We all have someone who understands us the best so I’m really lucky that I found Moriah at a painful time in my life.
