About Chenda

Dr. Chenda Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and other life changes. She practices in Texas and speaks English and Central Khmer. Her background in counseling and long career in education shape a practical, approachable style.

She earned a master’s degree in counseling and holds a doctorate in educational leadership. Dr. Moore spent 29 years in education as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator. That experience informs how she talks about parenting, career concerns, and school-related stress.

In sessions she focuses on each person’s individual needs. She pays attention to emotional and social wellness and how relationships with family, friends, and employers affect daily life. Her approach is straightforward and centered on helping people feel more like themselves again.

Common issues she addresses include coping with loss, addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, eating and sleeping struggles, and anger. She also supports people facing life transitions such as divorce, caregiving demands, or career shifts. Mood concerns such as depression, bipolar disorder, and ADHD are listed among her areas of focus.

Her work also touches on adoption and foster care, attachment and abandonment issues, body image, and forgiveness. Dr. Moore emphasizes practical steps and short-term strategies as well as ongoing support when needed.

She describes herself as a survivor of genocide who grew up in an Asian family, and she brings that perspective to her work. People who want a direct, experience-based approach may find her style a good fit.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's concerns, helping them find their own solutions and build confidence. It is useful for emotional support, relationship strain, and adjusting to life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating issues, and managing mood symptoms.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps and short-term goals to move past immediate problems. It can be a good fit for people who want actionable strategies and quick progress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then tailor sessions over time. Clients can expect to review progress and adjust methods as needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to keep regular appointments during life transitions.
