Stefanie Moore, MS, LPC, NCC - Clinical Therapist
Stefanie Moore has a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health counseling and has been in the field of Clinical Mental Health since 2016. Stefanie has both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in Special Education and was a special education teacher for 12 years prior to becoming a therapist. This experience provides Stefanie a unique understanding of the difficulties parents and children face when a loved one struggles with developmental disabilities.
Stefanie specializes in working with adolescents, teens, and adults who struggle with a variety of concerns. She has basic training in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), which is an eight-phase protocol that assists individuals in reprocessing their traumatic experiences. She also utilizes sandtray therapy which can increase emotional expression while reducing the psychological distress individuals may face from discussing traumatic events or experiences.
Stefanie believes that we all need a little help sometimes. Life is stressful and bad things happen to good people. She believes the most important aspect of therapy is the working relationship between the client and therapist. Therefore, Stefanie strives to build a genuine and trust-based relationship by creating a safe space that allows clients to feel comfortable and to be open and honest.
Grant Sparks - Clinical Therapist (Intern)
Grant is a Master's level clinical intern here at Insight Out Therapeutics. He has spent the better part of the last decade studying psychology and human services, with a focus on Geek Culture, Social Adjustment, and Addiction treatment. Grant uses an integrative counseling approach, blending an insight-based psychodynamic perspective with the tools and strategies of Cognitive Behavioral and Interpersonal therapies.
Grant believes that the core of most problems stem from a fundamental disconnect between what we experience internally and how we communicate that to the people closest to us. By focusing on identifying and processing our own experiences, Grant believes we can understand why and how we interact with the world around us. This knowledge can help us change both our internal understanding and our external environments for the better.
Grant welcomes LGBTQIA+ clients, members of the polyamory community, and folks with non-Christian or secular belief systems.
When he is not in the office, Grant spends his time researching Applied Roleplaying Therapy, which blends his passion for therapy with his love of Dungeons and Dragons.
