About Chenda
She holds a master’s degree in counseling and a doctorate in educational leadership. Before becoming an LPC she spent 29 years in schools as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator. That work focused on helping individuals and families navigate everyday pressures and complicated relationships.
Dr. Moore is a survivor of a genocide and was raised in an Asian family, experiences that inform her understanding of loss, cultural identity, and resilience. She aims to create space for clients to talk about difficult memories, caregiving strain, and the stress that comes with major life events.
In sessions she centers each person’s unique needs and goals. She uses straightforward conversation to help people notice patterns, try new ways of coping, and strengthen relationships. Practical skills and short-term problem solving often appear alongside deeper reflection.
Her work includes support for issues such as caregiving stress, aging and geriatric issues, attachment and family concerns, addiction and trauma, as well as mood disorders like depression and bipolar. Dr. Moore emphasizes helping people move toward a more authentic and satisfying life.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist, using listening and empathy to help people clarify their goals and feel understood. It can be helpful for relationship stress, grief, and self-esteem concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep and eating issues, and coping after trauma.
Solution-Focused Therapy centers on practical steps and short-term goals, highlighting strengths and recent successes to build momentum through change.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. This means trying different techniques and adjusting the plan based on what helps.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins that match a client’s schedule. Because session formats are not specified here, confirm current session options before booking so you know what will work for you. Many people find that remote sessions make it simpler to maintain continuity of care during life transitions and caregiving responsibilities.
