Augustus Moore
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who uses a combination of traditional sensibilities with a modern-day understanding of how to reach the older and younger demographic.
My greatest strengths as a provider lie in my ability to use my life experiences to form a therapeutic alliance with a patient.
I aspire to utilize life experiences of an individual to help them and myself understand their present-day thought process and identify how their thoughts are impacting their emotions, which is possibly influencing their behavior. In some instances, it’s a behavior the individual wants to change.
First session
I aim for all my clients to feel understood. I also want my clients to feel comfortable knowing this is a collaborative effort. I want them to know they will be challenged but it is coming from a genuine space and not a malicious one.
Strengths
My greatest strengths as a provider lie in my ability to use my life experiences to form a therapeutic alliance with a patient. I attempt to provide clear, accurate responses across a wide range of topics. I am also adaptable, able to tailor my communication style to suit your needs.
Ideal clients
I love working with people who are having some troubles dealing with life circumstances. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about past decisions and the unknown.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a type of psychotherapy that helps people identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. CBT helps people recognize inaccurate or negative thinking patterns. It also helps people break down overwhelming problems into smaller, more manageable parts. CBT teaches people practical strategies to help them manage their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution Focused Therapy is a collaborative, goal-oriented approach to therapy that focuses on building solutions rather than dwelling on problems. SFT is effective for a variety of concerns, including trauma, substance misuse, and suicide prevention. SFT is based on the idea that people have the knowledge to improve their own situations.
