Hello! My name is Dr. Ann R. Moore and I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in working with late-stage adolescents and young adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression and other social/emotional problems stemming from difficult life transitions. I also work as a parent coach to enhance family dynamics and functioning. I was trained as a cognitive behaviorist who works to provide a warm and supportive environment for people wanting to develop new patterns of behavior and improve their daily experience and relationships with others. I have a specialization in positive psychology and utilize techniques from this tradition to help people harness their inner strengths and natural resiliencies to improve their overall well-being and life satisfaction. I offer a warm and compassionate space for people to explore their life, gain insight into their behavior patterns, and gain the valuable skills needed to create happier and more satisfying lives. I earned my doctorate in School Psychology from Indiana University in 1993. Since then I have worked as an outpatient therapist, a behavioral consultant and provided parenting advice to many. I am the proud mother of 4 young adult children and believe my own parenting experience has greatly enhanced my professional understanding and given me greater empathy and understanding for the adolescents, young adults and parents I serve. I an excited to join the Better Help Team because it makes psychology accessible to everyone. Life today presents may challenges and it takes courage to seek help. I would be honored to assist you in your journey toward a healthier and happier life.

“If I can help people lessen the amount of pain in their lives and rid themselves of suffering then that’s what I want to do.” said young adult, Lisa Levin. Nearly 2-and-a-half decades later: Lisa specializes in treating all traumas (also to include racism/discrimination, spiritual/religious), all addictions (including love, sex, pornography, etc.), veteran issues, self-esteem, & depression/emotional dysregulation. These are only some of her passions. Lisa is not a conventional therapist. She does what WORKS (within ethical bounds) even if it’s a little out of the ordinary because she understands each client’s needs are different.She has over twenty years of experience including overseas, and she maintains her passion today. Board Certified (BCD) with a myriad of training like EMDR, PE, CBT, ACT, hypnotherapy, and she’s certified as an Addictions Specialist (CAS) as well as an Emotion Code* Practitioner (CECP). Lisa specializes in treating all trauma and addictions. Trauma can be one event or many. Did you know that trauma can be mental/emotional all by itself? You don’t have to have been hit, sexually assaulted, in a car accident, or in war to have been traumatized. Years of mistreatment and enduring microagressions for example or lack of emotional nurturance take its toll on even the toughest of us. It doesn’t matter if others see the events you’ve endured as traumatic. What matters is how YOUR heart and mind have responded to your experiences. As for addictions, addiction can but doesn’t have to be about drugs and alcohol. Love, sex, porn, gambling, shopping, eating, video games these all are very powerful forces in people’s lives that need to be treated so they can live much freer & satisfying lives. What makes Lisa different? She’s passionate about helping right the societal wrongs of the past and actively works for equality and justice for everyone regardless of skin color, orientation, religion, nationality, and background. ** She helps people of color and those in the LGBTQIA+ communities take charge of their lives in an empowered way and deal with the trauma of discrimination, racism, and microagressions. *Not many people in the psychology world have heard of the Emotion Code because it’s in the realm of energy healing. Lisa researched it, learned it and decided it worked so well it was worth her time and resources to become certified to enhance her clients’ therapy progress. According to Lisa, “I’ve seen EC improve lives of clients in one or two sessions that talk therapy and even EMDR haven’t been able to accomplish in such a short amount of time! It’s really an amazing tool, and I quinsy be the only one in the area that provides this service.” About scheduling appointments: I've stopped using BH's scheduling platform. I'd rather find out what your hours of availability are and schedule with you one on one. **Check out Lisa’s FB pages: Equality & Justice for Black Lives and There’s No Such Thing As Sidelines

I hold a Masters and a Ph.D. in counseling psychology and have been licensed as a mental health or professional counselor (LMHC) since 1994. Over the past 25 years, I have worked as an individual counselor with college-aged students and adults in clinical, private practice, and non-profit settings. I also have experience working as an Indiana University (Indianapolis) associate professor in their undergraduate and graduate counseling and psychology programs. My specialty as a counselor is helping you to quickly identify and understand your blind spots and move beyond them. Blind spots are those beliefs or areas of your life that often keep us stuck repeating the same patterns that often cause relationship problems, depression, anxiety, and other issues. Many times in our life, we find ourselves stuck or overwhelmed, not knowing how to move forward. As a counselor, I will encourage, support, and assist you in moving beyond your current situation. Using theories or techniques of cognitive psychology, I help identify the distorted thought patterns that no longer work for you and teach you the tools necessary to grow and move beyond your current challenge. Counseling can help you move beyond a state of helplessness by examining new possibilities and helping you make the changes necessary to create the life you want. The counseling relationship is important to the successful outcome of therapy. By building a relational foundation, you can lessen your defenses and open yourself to the possibilities for change. This foundation enables you to explore yourself and your situation, understand self-defeating behaviors, and make the necessary steps for change. You are an active participant in the counseling process. My approach is warm and empathetic, yet also direct and authentic. It's important to remember that as a counselor, I'm not here to judge you but rather to support, encourage, and guide you as you navigate through challenges.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for more than 30 years. I have a BA in communications from Webster College and an MSW from St. Louis University, both located in St. Louis, MO. My work as a therapist has been in community mental health, in-patient psychiatry, addictions and in private practice. I also spent time as a behavior specialist for the Medicaid Waiver Program working with developmentally disabled people. My approach to therapy is typically client-centered. I use family systems, CBT, psychodynamic, motivational interviewing and other approaches in my work. I have been fortunate to have walked with hundreds of men, women and teens on their journey toward a more satisfying life, physically. psychologically and spiritually.

I feel that therapy is about building a trusting relationship with a person, helping them outline what they're looking for, and finding a way to get there. I have a master's degree in counseling and I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Indiana. I have experience working with specific diagnoses, such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and more. More often, though, I work with those who just have "problems," as everyone does at times. Emotional instability, anxiety and depression, grief and loss, relationship struggles, addiction, career exploration, anger management, and sexual dysfunction are just a few such problems. I feel it is my duty to "work myself out of a job" - I want to help you build the tools and support network to reach your goals and sustain your progress with as much or as little support as you need. Basically, you tell me what you're looking for, and we'll work together to get you there!
