Debra Moore, LCSW

Debra Moore is a Nevada-based licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 40 years of professional experience helping people navigate life transitions and emotional challenges. She specializes in depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, and self-esteem concerns, and brings a compassionate, holistic perspective that honors each person's unique history and strengths.

Her practice includes focused work with trauma recovery, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care matters, aging and geriatric concerns, and attachment issues. Debra also supports clients managing codependency, family of origin wounds, communication difficulties, and the complex emotions that follow loss or major life changes. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients develop coping skills, process painful experiences, and build clearer paths forward.

Across four decades of practice, Debra has worked with a broad range of life stages and circumstances, including support for young adults, women’s issues, veterans, and end-of-life planning and hospice-related concerns. Known for bringing depth, empathy, and practical guidance to the therapeutic relationship, she helps clients explore emotions, heal from the past, and create meaningful strategies for personal growth and improved well-being.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Debra Moore uses a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person's needs. One focus is skill-building for stress and anxiety - practical tools and exercises that teach breathing, relaxation, and problem-solving to reduce daily symptoms and improve coping. Another area is grief-focused work and meaning-making - guided exploration of loss, rituals, and memories to help people process sorrow and integrate change. She also emphasizes relational and communication-focused interventions that support healthier boundaries, clearer expression, and improved interactions within families and partnerships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Debra collaborates with clients to identify which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting methods over time so therapy remains relevant and effective.

Online formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent care from home or on the go. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, the ability to maintain continuity through transitions, and multiple ways to communicate so clients can choose the format that best supports their progress with licensed professionals and therapists.
