Hi, I’m Erika Moore
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I’m a California-based therapist with over 14 years of experience helping women navigate anxiety, trauma, relationships, and life transitions. I specialize in working with adult women - especially Women of Color - seeking healing, clarity, and deeper self-understanding.
Before starting Moore Therapy, I worked in community mental health as both a Clinical Supervisor and Therapist, supporting children, teens, and adult women facing a wide range of emotional challenges - from depression and anxiety to complex trauma, intimate partner violence, and personality disorders.
My work in community mental health continues to shape my values and approach: authentic, justice-minded, client-centered care that honors your voice and lived experience.
My Therapeutic Approach
Culturally Responsive, Collaborative, and Tailored to You
Therapy with me is a collaborative space rooted in trust, compassion, and cultural humility. I take an eclectic approach, drawing from multiple evidence-based modalities to meet your specific needs and goals.
My therapeutic style incorporates:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for managing thoughts and behaviors
Humanistic and Client-Centered Therapy to create a warm, affirming space
Strength-Based and Empowerment Approaches to highlight resilience
Psychodynamic and Family Systems insight for understanding relational patterns and past influences
While I bring clinical expertise, I believe you are the expert of your own life. My goal is to support your healing and growth by walking alongside you - offering care, reflection, and tools for lasting change.
Healing begins with feeling safe. I’m committed to creating a therapeutic space where you feel emotionally held, deeply respected, and free to be your full self - without judgment or pressure. Together, we build a foundation of trust, allowing growth, clarity, and transformation to unfold at your pace.
