About Moriah

Moriah MacCleod is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) practicing in New Mexico with 31 years of experience. She centers sessions on the person in front of her and helps people draw on their strengths to handle hard moments. She emphasizes practical steps and steady support during change.

MacCleod believes taking the first step toward a happier life takes courage. She offers calm, straightforward guidance and helps people name what matters to them.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what clients want to change and on small, usable strategies they can try between meetings. Her work covers stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and addiction concerns. She also helps people manage parenting strain, caregiving stress, relationship and communication problems, and issues tied to family of origin or attachment.

Practical problem solving and emotional processing are both part of her approach. She uses several therapy styles to match different needs, including cognitive behavioral work to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, acceptance-based practices to clarify values, and EMDR to address painful memories when appropriate. Conversations are collaborative and paced to match each person's readiness.

Sessions can include short skill-building exercises, gentle exploration of difficult experiences, and planning for next steps. The goal is clearer thinking, steadier emotion, and better coping so daily life feels more manageable.

Online support

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people get clearer about what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions because it focuses on action in valued directions rather than getting stuck on symptoms. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, known as EMDR, is a method used to address painful memories and trauma-related reactions through guided processing and bilateral stimulation when appropriate. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, centers on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and is practical for depression, anxiety, and habit change.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and comfort level, then suggest which methods to try first. Sessions can mix techniques and shift over time so the plan stays useful and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is helpful for in-depth work and EMDR-style processing, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat is good for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing coaching between meetings. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between appointments.
