Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
“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.

Lisa Levin began her career determined to help people reduce pain and suffering, and that commitment continues after two decades of clinical work. She brings 20 years of experience, including work overseas, to address stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression and relationship issues. Her approach is practical and outcome-focused – she uses techniques that produce results within ethical guidelines and adapts methods to each person’s needs.
She is a licensed clinical social worker in Indiana (license number IN LCSW 34005742A) and holds board certification in her field. Her clinical training includes EMDR, prolonged exposure (PE), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and hypnotherapy. She is also certified as an Addictions Specialist (CAS) and as an Emotion Code Practitioner (CECP), which she pursued after finding it helpful alongside other therapies.
Lisa treats all forms of trauma – including experiences related to racism, discrimination, and spiritual or religious harm – as well as a broad range of addictions such as substances and behavioral addictions like love, sex, and pornography. She recognizes that trauma can be emotional or mental without a single dramatic event; years of mistreatment, microaggressions, or lack of emotional nurturance can wear on a person’s wellbeing. What matters most is how an individual’s heart and mind have responded to their experiences.
Her addiction work similarly honors that dependency can take many forms beyond drugs and alcohol. Compulsive patterns involving gambling, shopping, eating, video games and other behaviors can be powerful forces that interfere with living a freer, more satisfying life.
Lisa is also an active advocate for social justice and equality. She works to support people of color and members of LGBTQIA+ communities in reclaiming agency and healing from the harms of discrimination and microaggressions. She maintains Facebook pages titled “Equality & Justice for Black Lives” and “There’s No Such Thing As Sidelines.”
Regarding appointments, Lisa no longer uses BH’s scheduling platform and prefers to learn a client’s availability directly in order to schedule sessions one-on-one.
Many people ask whether meeting with a therapist online can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or transitions in life, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can choose the format that fits their life and comfort level, connecting by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That variety makes it easier to integrate therapy into busy schedules and to access care from different locations.
All therapists involved are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they seek a different fit. For many people facing everyday mental health challenges, online therapy offers a convenient, effective path to support and progress.
