Jeri Moore

Jeri Moore is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Certified Addiction Professional for 30 years.  She has worked in the field of counseling for 30 years helping people gain a perspective on their lives. The focus of her career has been on empowering the lives of those with whom she interacts with on a daily basis. Her counseling style is eclectic, combined with unconditional positive regard for the client mixed with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Therapeutically, her approach lies in cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, solution focused therapy; and elements of reality therapy, and motivational interviewing.   

She graduated Nova Southeastern University in 1994. She works with individuals, families, and couples, individuals, and teens. She presently works with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, suicidal ideations, and relationship issues. Her line of work also led me towards the addiction field where she worked with adults suffering from addiction, alcoholism and mental health issues where she grew from therapist, to clinical director of more than one substance abuse/mental health treatment center. She has experience working with domestic violence for court ordered perpetrators for ten years as well as being a professor for Saint Thomas University for four years where she taught, “Addiction & The Family”.

She believes therapy is a collaborative effort between both therapist and client and her style involves helping to arrive at insight, strategies, and tools that you can begin using immediately to make positive change in your life. You don’t just sit and talk. She loves to provide you with concrete tools wherever possible and help you to have a plan for the following days before your next session, if that is the pace you would like to move at. Most importantly, she is going to make sure you are making progress on goals that you have for yourself. She will be there to guide you, encourage you, possibly even challenge you if you feel you are unknowingly allowing obstacles to stand in your way. “I love what I do, helping and working with people.”
