Hello my name is Sandra Moore and I have had the heart for helping others for as long as I can remember! I recall seeing my first client at the age of 22 and felt the passion I had to help others. I have an Associates degree in psychology, a Bachelors degree in psychology, a Masters degree in Social Work and I am Licensed by the Board of Behavioral Sciences. I love working with a variety of populations.

Fun fact: I'm a proud boy mom—my son and even our pup are boys! Living in a house full of boys has taught me flexibility, resilience, and a good sense of humor, so not much scares me.

Gregory Haymon

Therapist

Virtual • California


I have over 20 years of experience helping clients explore and navigate challenges related to relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. My approach is client-centered, meaning therapy is tailored to each individual’s unique needs and goals. I integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, and Attachment Theory, with particular attention to how early life experiences shape our relationships with ourselves and others.

Living with anxiety, depression, or trauma can create deep feelings of isolation and hopelessness. Relationship struggles and low self-esteem often fuel fear, self-doubt, and emotional overwhelm. Breaking cycles of overthinking, managing intense emotions, and facing uncomfortable people or situations can feel exhausting. When emotions feel unstable and life feels heavy, recognizing the need for change is an important first step. While change can be intimidating, having a supportive therapist can make the process feel more manageable and less isolating.

I genuinely care about my clients and strive to meet them with empathy, compassion, and respect. I have helped many individuals navigate difficult life circumstances by increasing self-awareness, strengthening emotional regulation, and reflecting on personal experiences. Together, we work to better understand the patterns that may be keeping you feeling stuck or distressed.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. Feeling safe and supported is essential for healing and growth. I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space where you can speak openly and work toward meaningful change at your own pace.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Modesto

Finding the right therapist in Modesto starts with getting clear on the type of care you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or something else, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a meaningful difference. Common provider types include licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), licensed professional counselors (LPCs), and psychologists. On Headway, you can read detailed provider bios to learn about each therapist's approach, specialties, and background before you book.

Modesto is part of California's Central Valley, where in-person therapy options can be more limited than in larger metro areas like Sacramento or the Bay Area. Virtual sessions expand your choices significantly, giving you access to California-licensed providers who may be based outside Stanislaus County. If in-person care matters to you, look for providers with offices in or near Modesto, including surrounding communities like Turlock, Ceres, and Salida.

Therapy in California can be expensive without insurance. A single session may cost several hundred dollars out of pocket. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Confirming your coverage upfront helps you focus on finding the right provider rather than worrying about cost.
