Moriah McCarthy

Moriah McCarthy is a Florida LMHC with 11 years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life purpose questions. Her focus also includes ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, sleep problems, and career doubts.

Moriah blends looking at the past with practical skills for the present. She uses education and concrete tools so clients can keep using what they learn after sessions end. Treatment mixes insight work with forward-focused steps to build momentum.

Her way of working is client-centered and creative. She brings attention to strengths and challenges and helps people connect thoughts, feelings, and actions. She invites feedback and makes decisions together with each person she sees.

Moriah aims to encourage people to take active steps toward greater stability. She discusses options, offers skills, and asks clients to try small experiments between sessions. The goal is consistent short-term tools alongside deeper reflection.

Clients often come for help with relationship problems, intimacy-related issues, and non-monogamous dynamics such as polyamory. She also supports those navigating divorce, parenting strain, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose. Moriah uses mindfulness and narrative techniques alongside acceptance-based work to approach these concerns.

How her approaches translate to online work

Moriah uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in ways that fit well with remote sessions. ACT focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and uncertainty about life purpose. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building understanding; it supports people who want a respectful, collaborative space to talk through relationship and identity concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust as needed based on progress and feedback.

Confirm which session formats are available before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people choose whether to be on camera or not depending on comfort and bandwidth. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and client-centered techniques to these conditions to support ongoing skill practice and reflective work.
