Innovating Science, Healing, and Empowerment for Women’s Midlife

Dr. Stacey Denise Moore is a board-certified surgeon, lifestyle medicine physician, and doctoral researcher specializing in trauma-informed neuroaesthetics. As founder of SDM Medical PLLC, Dr. Moore channels more than 25 years of clinical, leadership, and lived experience to pioneer research, theory, and frameworks at the intersection of sensory-centered medicine, metabolic resilience, and creative emotional healing for neurodivergent and high-functioning women.

Signature Frameworks & Methods

Dr. Moore is the creator of the Color Reset Method™ and the Neuroaesthetic Reset™—innovative, evidence-rooted modalities that blend trauma science, color psychology, and sensory design. These frameworks help clients and clinicians rewire emotional overwhelm, restore embodied clarity, and build long-term resilience. Her methods are used in academic research, therapeutic programs, clinical training, and group interventions for women navigating perimenopause, burnout, and sensory sensitivity.

Research and Academic Focus

Currently pursuing her PhD at Lifestyle Prescriptions University (LPU), Dr. Moore’s work explores:

  • Trauma, neuroaesthetics, and emotion regulation
  • Sensory health and sleep in neurodivergent women
  • Polyvagal-informed and root-cause models for midlife health
  • Creative expression as a lever for community and personal healing
  • Cultural and identity-based resilience

All publications, preprints, and research data are available on her ORCID profile.

Lived Experience, Lens & Philosophy

Dr. Moore’s academic and clinical vision is shaped by her own neurodivergent journey (hf-ASD, alexithymia) and firsthand experience of navigating perimenopause and the gaps in traditional women’s healthcare. Her ethos: medicine must move beyond symptom-suppression and acknowledge the full landscape of lived, emotional, and sensory experience.
She centers ND and marginalized women in all research and training, offering science-backed frameworks where women can finally feel seen, supported, and safe.
