About Chenda
Dr. Chenda Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship concerns. She speaks English and Central Khmer and practices from Texas.
Her work is practical and straightforward, aimed at helping people feel more steady and able to handle life’s demands. Moore draws on seven years as an LPC and a long history in education. She spent many years as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator.
Background and approach
That background shapes how she listens and how she helps clients set realistic goals. Her sessions focus on the person in front of her. She pays attention to how relationships, work, culture, and past loss affect everyday life.
Clients can expect a calm, respectful space to talk through grief, trauma, parenting strain, career questions, and changes that feel overwhelming. Moore uses a mix of practical techniques to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to build clear, doable steps forward. She also works collaboratively to identify what matters most and to create short-term goals that make daily life easier.
Her experience growing up in an Asian family and surviving genocide informs her perspective and sensitivity to cultural and life-course stressors. That history adds understanding when addressing attachment, abandonment, family conflict, and caregiver strain. People looking for help with coping skills, relationship stress, mood instability, or life transitions will find an approach that is patient and goal-focused.
The emphasis is on small changes that add up to real improvement.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s goals and experience first. The therapist listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, which can help when sorting through grief, relationship strain, or cultural stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep or eating problems, and for building concrete coping skills.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match the client’s needs and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying short-term goal work, shifting thought patterns, or deepening how clients understand their relationships and history.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or lower bandwidth needs. Live chat and text messaging let clients use short updates, work through exercises between meetings, or keep therapy going during busy weeks. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, or caregiving responsibilities.
