Before I tell you a bit about me, I wanted to caution any new clients of thinking that a spot is open on my calendar when they schedule.

I help young adults and adults tackle life's challenges through various interventions that help them thrive in the world.

You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back.

My goal is to help you feel genuinely understood as you create a life that feels more peaceful, confident, and authentic.

First of all, I love what I do and to witness the positive changes clients make in their lives as a result of choosing therapy to help them accomplish what they want. Often the goal is to achieve symptom relief so as to not be overwhelmed by anxiety, mood disorders or be better able to manage the challenges of ADHD. Sometimes there is not a specific outcome identified but a need for ongoing support for dealing with life transitions or difficult people. Sometimes clients use therapy as a confidential sounding board where they can talk to an objective outsider about situations and sort out their perspective. I offer various ways to see and respond to situations that might otherwise not be considered. Your opinion as a client is the most important one and I will also honestly provide mine when asked for. I believe therapy can actually be something that you can look forward to and an opportunity to learn new skills to use long after you discontinue, and we can even have some fun and laughs along the journey.

I worked with Parole and Probation to help clients maintain compliance and management while on the registry. As a Certified Life Coach, I help coaching clients discover what they truly desire. We collaborate to create a roadmap to move forward and build a future that feels grounded and authentic to you. At present, I offer a full range of services and am open to accepting new virtual clients. I am LGBTQIA+allied, sex-positive, kink-friendly and nurturing to clients within this community. I also help clients navigate open relationships (ENM), polyamory, and non-traditional relationships. **I CAN ONLY SEE CLIENTS WHO ARE IN THE STATES OF DC AND MD AT THE TIME OF THEIR SCHEDULED **Individuals & families ONLY at this time.

I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and positive change. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to work through life's challenges. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients explore the connections between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while building on the strengths they already possess. For those open to it, I also offer faith-based support, honoring the role that Christian values and spirituality can play in healing. I value a collaborative approach to counseling and believe that therapy should be tailored to each individual's unique needs and experiences. Whether you are facing anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, or simply seeking personal growth, I am committed to helping you discover solutions, build resilience, and move forward with greater confidence and hope. My aim is to support you in creating lasting changes that align with your values and the life you envision for yourself. Together, we identify practical strategies to overcome obstacles, develop healthier coping skills, and create realistic goals that lead to meaningful progress.

Hello! My name is Genai Moore & welcome to your Moore Abundant Life. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for guiding individuals on their journey towards healing and creating the life they desire – a life that encompasses physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. I believe in the power of therapeutic work, and it's my pleasure to assist you in your path to personal growth. I teach my clients that therapy is a collaborative effort, and you can only reap the benefits based on the effort you invest. But don't worry, we will proceed at your pace, respecting your unique journey. My treatment approach integrates a modern and holistic perspective on wellness. While my toolkit is extensive, it primarily draws from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and incorporates the vital components of nutrition, movement, and the intricate mind-body connection. I specialize in helping individuals overcome and cope with trauma, depression, anxiety, and grief. These are complex challenges that can weigh us down, but with the right support and approach, you can navigate through them and heal. I offer individual and couples therapy, where I create a supportive space for clients to explore their challenges and strengths. I am particularly passionate about serving people of color and the LGBTQAI community, acknowledging the importance of culturally competent and affirming mental health care. With a focus on empowerment and resilience, I strive to help clients navigate their mental health journeys authentically and achieve positive, lasting changes. If you're tired of feeling stuck, I invite you to join me in a process of self-discovery and forward progress. Together, we can work through the obstacles, unlock your potential, achieve the life you desire. Remember, it's your journey, I'm here to provide the guidance and support you need.
