Barbara Moorehead is a Louisiana psychologist with 25 years of professional experience. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, anger, and depression.

Barbara uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations about what feels most urgent.

Her background includes work with those facing life changes, chronic health issues, and challenges tied to military service and first responder roles. She also has experience with blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and substance use concerns. This range helps her notice patterns that show up across different situations.
In sessions she listens for how family of origin and communication habits affect current relationships. She helps people practice new ways of speaking and setting boundaries that feel realistic. When health problems or disability are part of the picture, she supports coping strategies that fit everyday life.
Barbara works in Louisiana and offers services in English. International clients are accepted, and she asks people to complete the Start Therapy process to begin. Scheduling is arranged after completing a short matching questionnaire.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Barbara uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps people can try between sessions. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing alternative responses; this helps with anxiety and depression by building new ways of reacting to stressful situations. Another approach emphasizes behavior change through small, concrete experiments and routine adjustments; this is useful for managing stress, anger, and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and day-to-day needs, then try methods that seem to fit. Progress is reviewed together and approaches are adjusted when something isn’t working well.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a quick follow-up is helpful. It also makes working with a Louisiana-licensed psychologist accessible to clients in other places who complete the matching process.
