About Moriah

Moriah MacCleod uses a collaborative, client-centered approach that emphasizes personal strengths and practical strategies to address a wide range of concerns.

Background and approach

As a licensed professional counselor (LPCC) practicing in New Mexico, she draws on more than three decades of clinical experience to help people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, addiction, ADHD, and life transitions. Her work balances evidence-based techniques with empathy, helping clients explore values, build coping skills, and repair relational patterns.

She integrates methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and EMDR to tailor care to each individual’s needs. Over 31 years she has supported people facing issues like attachment wounds, caregiver stress, communication problems, family-of-origin concerns, and codependency.

Moriah frames change as a process in which the client’s expertise in their own life guides therapeutic goals, while she offers structure, interventions, and compassion to move toward clearer priorities and improved function. Her practice emphasizes working together to identify practical steps and internal resources.

Those seeking help in New Mexico or via online formats will find a seasoned clinician who combines respectful listening with targeted therapeutic tools.

Therapeutic approaches applied to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help clients clarify personal values and take committed action despite difficult thoughts or feelings; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to change behaviors and mood, often helping with depression, anxiety, and coping strategies. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that supports processing distressing memories and their emotional impact through structured bilateral stimulation and guided recall.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to explore goals, preferences, and symptom patterns, and then recommends or combines methods that best fit the person's needs. This partnership helps ensure treatment feels relevant and manageable rather than prescriptive.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different lifestyles and schedules. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care when travel, work, or other commitments make in-person visits difficult, and they allow clients to engage with therapeutic tools and support from their chosen location.
