Therapists in Interland-University Research Park, Davis, CA

Hello, I am Judy Moore. I bring an exciting range of life experience and professional training to the therapy setting. I honor the stories and narrations you share with me in therapy and believe that the slow formation of trust between us creates a sacred ground for healing. Through this relationship built on trust and respect, you can find a way to more confidently navigate your life in a calmer way. I enjoy working with mood disturbance, anxiety, relationship issues and existential life situations. I am particularly fascinated by cultural diversity and am committed to helping you grow in a supportive and encouraging environment.

I provide psychotherapeutic services for children, teens and adults in Davis, CA. Prior to private practice I worked in community mental health and residential treatment. I use a person-centered approach, tailoring therapy to each individual’s needs and strengths. I have particular interest in working with young people and their parents through the ups and downs, developmental challenges, and stresses of growing up. Clients have shared that I have an easy, down to earth, warm and relational approach.

My goal is to help you feel less alone and overwhelmed by the challenges life can present. Whether it's panic attacks, social anxiety, sadness, apathy, lack of motivation, anger, relationship conflict, or other concerns, we'll work on a solution. I understand how limiting psychological distress can be and am passionate about helping you start living a more meaningful and engaged life. I draw from the insights of psychodynamic theorists to explore unconscious motivations, from the wisdom of interpersonal thinkers to understand your relationships, and from the science of cognitive behavioral researchers to change your thinking and attitudes.

I offer a warm, compassionate, down-to-earth, non-judgmental style that lends itself to creating a safe and trusting therapeutic environment for healing, growth and change. I work actively and collaboratively with you to develop an integrated approach to treatment that is tailored to suit your unique concerns and goals. We may explore historical and current emotions, thoughts and behavior patterns that are keeping you from more meaningful relationships, esteem and the quality of life you want. I encourage your feedback and am flexible to work with your changing needs.

I believe that you have the wisdom and capability to live the life you desire and deserve. I can help you tap into your individual strengths to overcome challenges and create a more meaningful, connected, authentic and fulfilling life. My approach to therapy is client-focused, open and compassionate.
