About Misty

Misty Moler is a licensed counselor in North Carolina with 18 years of clinical experience supporting adults through a broad range of mental health and life concerns.

Background and approach

She addresses challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, coping with life changes, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and career questions, and ADHD. Her practice also includes work with mood disorders like bipolar, compassion fatigue, and topics related to LGBT identities and caregiving stress.

Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Solution-Focused and client-centered techniques, offering practical tools, role-play, and take-home assignments to connect session work with day-to-day life. She emphasizes a strengths-based, empowerment-oriented style, helping clients identify patterns of unhelpful thinking and experiment with new behaviors and coping strategies.

Misty also brings experience from higher education and independent practice settings and can administer career inventories such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator to support vocational exploration. Clients can expect a warm, collaborative, and interactive counseling relationship grounded in respect and unconditional positive regard.

Treatment plans are individualized and guided by the client’s goals, with practical handouts and exercises used to reinforce learning between sessions.

Practical Therapies for Everyday Challenges Online

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors by using concrete exercises and homework to practice new skills between sessions; it can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood regulation. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and unconditional positive regard to create a collaborative space where clients explore their values and goals while feeling heard and supported.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailor an individualized plan that may draw from CBT, client-centered methods, or solution-focused techniques to match the client’s changing priorities.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules or manage care from home. These formats support ongoing engagement with therapy tools and allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent, interactive care while adapting communication styles to what works best for each client.
