About Atiya
Atiya Moore is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and codependency concerns. She brings a calm, direct style and encourages steady steps toward change. Her approach is practical and focused on what feels doable in everyday life.
Moore draws on more than 20 years of experience in behavioral health across different settings. She often supports people recovering from long-standing or generational trauma and those working through patterns like self-doubt, self-sabotage, and victim mentality. Sessions typically center on identifying small, sustainable changes that add up over time.
Her work blends client-centered conversations with skills-based tools. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build values-driven action. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness practices are woven in to manage intense emotions and reduce reactivity.
Atiya also incorporates somatic practices and motivational interviewing to boost internal motivation. She sometimes explores less traditional supports such as energy management and therapeutic gardening when those fit a person’s goals. This flexibility helps tailor the work to individual needs.
People who choose her often want a therapist who listens, offers concrete skills, and respects their pace. She works from Maryland and meets with English-speaking clients, including people located outside the United States when that is appropriate.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression, codependency patterns, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments, which can reduce anxiety and change behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings practical skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try different tools to find what fits. That collaborative process helps tailor the methods to each person’s needs and pace.
The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins when real life gets hectic. Phone or video sessions can be adjusted for a shorter check-in or a longer skills session depending on what a person needs and what is available.
