I have a passion for helping women and girls overcome anxiety and trauma. I will meet you where you are when life feels overwhelming and unmanageable and I will help walk with you to a place of greater peace. The stressful situation often looks different for each person but commonly includes: relational difficulties, hard life adjustments, adoption and infertility issues, and trauma. The process is tailored to each individual and is primarily based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment Theory, and Solution Focused Therapy (SFT). I'm trained in two trauma specific therapies: Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT).

I have worked in and worked closely with churches and other ministries throughout my career. As a graduate of Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (MBTS), I'm equipped and skilled at integrating faith with core counseling principles. I also have experience working with foster and adoptive families equipping parents to navigate issues specific to fostering and adoption.

I'm a proud East Central University Tiger and received my undergraduate degree in Communication Studies with a minor in Counseling. My Master's degree from MBTS is in Counseling. I began practicing in 2015 and have been in both agency and private practice settings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy are what I most commonly practice as well as utilizing Narrative Therapy and PlayTherapy tehniques within the individual sessions. I also practice Family Therapy Techniques and Group Therapy sessions. My Conceptualization of the therapy session can be summarized by the following two quotes.

"The real enemies of your lives are the "oughts" and "ifs." They pull us backward into the unalterable past and forward into the unpredictable future."  Henn Nouwan 

"Know that you are always, already forgiven." Rev. Landons Whitsitt 

These quotes illustrate the type of atmosphere I encourage in the therapy session as I appreciate that you are making an effort to change, and that takes courage. Recognize that you and I mess up, even frequently, but it's okay to embrace our faults, take responsibility and make changes while we learn from our mistakes. There are also circumstances that impact us suddenly and demonstrably that are comeletely our of our control. I value the opportunity to join alongside you on a collaborative journey where we navigate through the difficult situations that have arisen and will no longer be left unchallenged in our lives.

In his youth, Patrick Moore was often the calm, patient listener, people felt comfortable confiding in.  His own childhood experiences, along with witnessing the healing that mental health services can bring, inspired him to pursue a career in counseling.  After high school, he became an Army Medic and used the GI Bill to fund his education.  He earned an Associate degree in Psychology from Oklahoma City Community College (OCCC) and went on to complete a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's of Science degree in Counseling Psychology, both at Southern Nazarene University (SNU).

During his undergrad, he completed a practicum with A Chance to Change, where he worked with children of alcholics.  While pursuing his Master's, he worked as a Mental Health Tech at Integris Mental Health Spencer, primarily on the adolescent units.  His graduate internship at Moore Youth and Family gave him the opportunity to work with a wide range of clients, including those recovering from addiction and childhood trauma.   He also volunteered at Calm Waters for a couple of years, facilitating children's grief recovery groups during his LPC Candidacy. 

In 2006, he joined Bethesda in Norman, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting childhood survivors of sexual abuse, where he has been privileged to do this rewarding work for the past 18 years.

His passion is helping people heal from experiences no child should endure.  When this healing happens early, we can prevent long-term harm.  For adults who recognize the lasting effects of childhood trauma, he's equally committed to supporting their healing journey.

He's nationally certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), a framework he finds flexible enough to integrate other methods like the Fairytale Model, Progressisve Counting and Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), all of which enhance his work with clients.

Outside of work, he cherishes time with his family, enjoys fantasy books, and a good cup of hot tea. He's thankful for the experiences and growth he's had in life, and he trusts that the path ahead will continue to unfold in meaningful and fulfilling ways.
