Franklin Moore , LCMHC

Franklin Moore is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist Associate practicing in North Carolina. He brings six years of clinical experience working with adolescents and adults in community health settings and has served as a Qualified Professional in similar environments.

Franklin’s practice addresses a broad range of concerns including stress and anxiety, family and parenting challenges, addictions, relationship and communication problems, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, self-esteem, career issues, depression, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. He also works with clients facing chronic pain, illness, disability, divorce and separation, emptiness, intellectual disability, men’s issues, and the development of self-love.

His clinical orientation blends a person-centered approach with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). In plain terms, CBT focuses on present thinking patterns and how unhelpful thoughts can lead to problematic behaviors, helping clients identify and shift those patterns. The person-centered stance emphasizes acceptance and the importance of a strong therapeutic relationship, with healthy communication seen as a central catalyst for change. Franklin also incorporates techniques from Reality and Existential Therapy when they match a client’s needs.

He aims to offer a supportive, client-focused therapy experience that honors each person’s capacity for growth and change and is committed to ongoing professional development to better serve those he works with.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Franklin practices using client-centered therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental environment where a person’s own goals and values guide the work; it is helpful for building self-worth, improving communication, and navigating life transitions. CBT is a present-focused approach that helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and the behaviors they support, offering practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Franklin works collaboratively with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adapt strategies over time to best support progress. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy aligns with each person’s unique situation and values.

Online therapy with Franklin uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or medical needs and allow clients to continue care from different locations. Licensed professionals can effectively deliver client-centered and CBT-based support through these formats, helping clients move toward the changes they seek.
