Carolyn Moore, LCSW

Carolyn Moore is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Arizona with 23 years of experience as a psychotherapist. The LCSW credential indicates advanced training in clinical social work and qualification to provide therapeutic care. She focuses much of her work on survivors of physical, sexual, verbal, and emotional abuse and also supports people recovering from other types of trauma, coping with grief and loss, or facing stress, anxiety, and life transitions.

Her clinical toolkit includes Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), inner-child work, trauma-focused therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy - and she tailors methods to match each person’s needs. Her counseling style is caring, non-judgmental, respectful, and interactive, with an emphasis on emotional safety and practical steps forward. She helps clients identify and build on their strengths and works collaboratively to set and achieve meaningful goals.

Carolyn welcomes contact from people seeking support, empowerment, and guidance along their healing journey, and she aims to create a collaborative space where clients feel heard and supported.

Approaches and Access for Online Trauma Care

Carolyn integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support people in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and aligning treatment with the individual's values and pace - it helps when someone needs a compassionate space to explore feelings and make choices. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and building practical skills to manage symptoms like anxiety, low mood, or stress.

She also uses EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - when appropriate for trauma work. EMDR helps process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact through a structured series of guided techniques, which can be effective for many survivors of trauma when delivered by a trained therapist.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Carolyn works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting as progress is made. Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule appointments, continue care during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from different locations.
