About Chenda
Dr. Chenda Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She brings seven years of counseling experience and a long history in education to her work. She speaks English and Central Khmer and draws on her background as a survivor of genocide and a member of an Asian family to inform her perspective.
Her path includes a master’s degree in counseling and a doctorate in educational leadership, plus nearly three decades working in schools as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator. That experience shaped how she talks with people about stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and family concerns, and life changes.
In sessions she focuses on the individual needs of each person. She uses straightforward, collaborative conversations to help people sort feelings, notice patterns, and try new choices. She also brings methods from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused strategies when appropriate.
People come to her for a wide range of concerns including depression, bipolar struggles, addiction, trauma and abuse, eating and sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, and self-esteem. She also helps with more specific issues like attachment and abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, and first responder stress.
Dr. Moore aims to help people move toward a more authentic, satisfying life. She invites clients to work together to identify goals and practical steps that fit their daily routines and values.
How therapeutic approaches fit with online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify values and feel heard, which can reduce isolation and build motivation to change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It teaches practical skills people can try between sessions to ease anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems.
Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps toward specific goals. It can be useful when someone wants faster progress on a particular issue like coping with life changes, parenting stress, or relationship communication.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help the client identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. This is a collaborative process that respects the client's preferences and pace.
Confirm the session formats available before booking so they match your needs. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow brief check-ins between appointments, and remove travel time. It can also make it simpler to continue care after life changes while working toward clear, practical goals.
