About
Moriah MacCleod is an LPCC licensed in New Mexico with 31 years of professional experience. She approaches work from a stance that respects each person as the expert of their own story and seeks to identify and build on existing strengths. Moriah emphasizes collaboration, offering guidance while listening for the values and goals that matter most to the individual seeking help.
Moriah provides care for a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and relationship or family issues. Her practice also addresses addiction, ADHD, parenting challenges, career questions, and compassion fatigue, along with specific areas such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, and blended family concerns. She encourages those who are taking the step to seek support, acknowledging the courage involved and offering steady professional support through the process.
Remote Care Designed Around Evidence-Informed Approaches
Moriah integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working with distress related to anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is described in accessible terms as a way to clarify what matters to a person and to take committed action toward those values, while Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to current struggles. In joint work she and the person set practical steps and experiments to try between sessions.
When trauma or difficult memories are central, Moriah may use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to help process those experiences alongside client-centered listening. EMDR is offered within a collaborative frame where pacing, readiness, and consent guide each stage. She also incorporates relationship-focused methods, such as Emotionally-Focused Therapy and elements of the Gottman Method, when couples or family dynamics are part of the goals.
Remote sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, and Moriah discusses which formats fit best for each person at the start of care.What is Moriah MacCleod's professional background?
