About Moriah

Dr. Moriah Taylor helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship strain. She works with concerns such as grief, self-esteem, LGBT and gender dysphoria issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, anger, and career difficulties. Her practice also addresses coping with life changes and coping with natural or human-caused disaster. Dr. Taylor holds an LPC and brings 19 years of clinical experience to her work in Missouri.

She uses straightforward, collaborative methods in sessions. That means she listens first, then helps people set practical goals. She offers tools for emotion regulation, mindfulness, communication, and interpersonal skills, and can be a calm sounding board when people just need to talk.

Her approaches include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and the Gottman Method. Those methods are used to reduce distress, shift unhelpful patterns, and improve relationships over time.

Dr. Taylor has a doctorate in human and organizational psychology and is also a certified yoga instructor. She draws on experience supporting people with intense concerns like suicidal thoughts and self-harming behavior while keeping sessions practical and goal-focused.

Outside of work she is a parent who enjoys travel, kayaking, hiking, animals, and reading. She often suggests books or authors that may support a client's goals. Before scheduling a live session, confirm current session options and timing with the practice.

How these approaches translate to online care

Dr. Taylor uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT breaks problems into small, practical steps and offers exercises to practice between sessions. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, offering concrete strategies for managing intense feelings and improving relationships. EMDR is another approach she uses to address trauma memories by processing distressing experiences in a structured way.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. She will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences, and then suggest one or a combination of methods. That plan can shift as progress is made and as new needs arise, so clients stay involved in choosing what feels most helpful.

Confirm current online session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or let someone choose not to be on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT homework, DBT skills training, and trauma-focused work like EMDR to remote sessions when appropriate.
