Shelese Moaning
Welcome! My name is Shelese Moaning and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. I have been working with clients for about 7 years in various settings from acute psychiatric facilities to traditional online therapy sessions.
I have been working with clients for about 7 years in various settings from acute psychiatric facilities to traditional online therapy sessions.
I aim to create a space where you feel open to share the thoughts, feelings, and experiences that come with being human.
First session
During an ideal first session, I go over confidentiality, discuss what to expect from counseling, learn more about you, and answer any questions you may have. I also like to talk about what brought you to session and if time permits learn about your goals for therapy.
Strengths
I endeavor to make clients feel welcome, safe, heard, and validated during their sessions with me. As I am a human, I encourage you to let me know if something is not working for you or if I have misunderstood you so you can have the best therapy sessions possible.
Ideal clients
I have worked with clients across the lifespan (pediatrics-geriatrics). I enjoy working with adolescents, young (emerging) adults especially as it relates to college and career related challenges, and young mothers. There is often a lot of anxiety, uncertainty, and exploration within these stages and I'm here to walk with you through your journey.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to assist clients in exploring thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are not serving them.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
I use elements of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to assist those who have trouble identifying, regulating, and expressing their emotions. Emotional intelligence (EQ) is an important life skill, so my client(s) and I work to increase their EQ
