Ivana Moore

I am Ivana Bestic Moore, a Licensed Professional Counselor serving teens and adults across Texas.

I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, stress, grief, and questions of identity, meaning, and self-understanding. My clinical experience includes inpatient, outpatient, private practice, and nonprofit settings, working with a wide range of concerns and life circumstances.

I bring clinical training, varied life and professional experience, careful listening, and genuine care to my work.

My approach is integrative, relational, and psychodynamic. I approach therapy with attention to the whole person and respect for the complexity of each person's life.

Together, we may explore what is happening in the present, how earlier experiences may continue to influence life today, and what may support greater awareness, relief, and freedom in how you live and relate.

Psychodynamic therapy provides an important foundation for my work. My approach is also informed by attachment theory, trauma literature, emotion regulation, and additional clinical training when clinically appropriate.

My aim is to offer thoughtful, clinically flexible therapy that supports greater self-understanding, a more grounded relationship with your emotional life, and a stronger sense of self-trust in how you live, choose, and relate.

What You Can Expect

In the first session, we'll begin by talking about what brings you to therapy, what feels important right now, and what you may be hoping to better understand or work through.

You do not need to have everything figured out before starting. My aim is to offer a thoughtful, clinically flexible space that supports greater self-understanding, a more grounded relationship with your emotional life, and a stronger sense of self-trust in how you live, choose, and relate.
