About Moriah
Moriah MacCleod is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in New Mexico with 31 years of experience. She centers sessions on each person's strengths and respects that clients know their own story. She aims to support people who are ready to take a first step toward more satisfying, manageable days.
She uses practical talk and collaborative planning to address stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and life transitions. Her work also covers ADHD, addictions, grief, career questions, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. Codependency and attachment concerns are part of her focus when they affect a person's relationships and sense of self.
Moriah draws on several therapeutic approaches to match what a person needs. She brings Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take concrete steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses client-centered methods to keep conversations grounded in the person's experience.
Her style is practical and respectful. Sessions typically focus on clear goals, small experiments to try between meetings, and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Moriah encourages people to name what matters to them and build everyday routines that support those goals.
People who contact her complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. She offers services in English and practices in New Mexico as an LPCC.
Therapeutic approaches and what online work can look like
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and choose actions that align with those values, often useful for stress, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, letting the therapist follow the client's lead and support self-directed change.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process can include trying an approach for a few sessions and adjusting plans as progress and needs become clearer.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins from different locations. Some formats may also make it simpler to have a shorter check-in during a break, reduce the need for a long commute, or avoid being on camera when that feels difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and pacing to suit online sessions and everyday life routines.
