About Teresa

Moore practices in Rhode Island and offers sessions in English.

Background and approach

She listens for what matters most to each person and shapes conversations around those priorities. In sessions she focuses on practical ways to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. She helps people handle panic attacks, chronic stress, caregiving strain, and the fallout from relationship changes like divorce or separation.

She also supports those facing chronic illness, financial stress, or feelings of isolation. Dr. Moore adjusts pace and techniques to fit each person’s needs.

She talks through coping strategies, communication skills, and steps to manage difficult memories or grief. The emphasis is on clear, actionable steps rather than jargon. People work with her to set small goals and try changes between sessions.

Over time that can mean fewer crisis moments, steadier moods, and clearer thinking about life purpose and relationships. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling to find a good fit.

Approaches and Online Options That Fit Your Life

Dr. Moore uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and coping. One commonly used approach involves learning specific skills to manage anxiety and panic - breathing and grounding techniques, short behavioral experiments, and step-by-step plans to reduce avoidance. These methods help when worry or panic interfere with daily activities.

She also works with strategies aimed at processing trauma and difficult memories in a paced, tolerable way. This can include building safety and stabilization first, then working on tools to reduce the power of painful memories and the reactions they trigger. Such work often reduces flashbacks, hypervigilance, and intense emotional reactions over time.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences, and then try methods that match those needs. Plans are adjusted as progress is made and new priorities appear.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports short ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
