Moore authored the LIFE Recovery Model (LRM), endorsed by the late Dr. Mark Laaser. The LRM is trauma-informed, Core-Issue Addiction Recovery methodology emphasizing sexual addiction recovery best practices based on Post Traumatic Growth principles that expedite recovery. Moore also contributed content to the LIFE Recovery Guide for Addictive Behaviors and the LIFE Grieving Guide, as well as, co-authored E4HI – A Buyers' Reform School Curriculum approved by the state of Florida in 2017 for Purchasers of Adult Commercial Sex, as well as, the latest curriculum, Gospel Centered Sexuality. Moore is a Christ follower, avid student and Word Study geek who loves to learn; her recovery history includes multiple addictions: drug abuse, sex and love addiction, work-holism, body image issues and codependency. Moore was married 20 years to a known drug and sex addict until the marriage imploded after the discovery of violations of the innocent and his resistance to recovery.

“The ASC has been a transformative experience for me, prompting me to enroll twice and attend two additional times. The meticulous development of the course, particularly through the comprehensive CIAR videos, delves deep into understanding sexual addiction. Having engaged with other programs, I’ve found the ASC to offer unparalleled insights into addiction, emphasizing not only its intricacies but also fostering hope in recovery. The incorporation of extensive research provides a unique perspective on addiction and recovery, examining them through the lens of faith with well-documented evidence. Unlike typical lectures, the ASC’s animated videos offer a realistic and engaging learning experience, making the ASC stand out in its depth and effectiveness.”

“FMM’s Associate Study Certificate has given me an opportunity to slow down in my own recovery and look under the hood to understand more clearly the Neuroscience as well as practical applications that are not only helping me in my own recovery but empowering me to be more effective in my role as a coach and sponsor for others. Sue’s knowledge combined with her passion for multiplying facilitators and trainers is a powerful combination and is helping not only address sexual addiction issues, but also equipping the Church to provide paths for healing and equipping for understanding God’s amazing design for sexuality and sexual development.”

David R. ASC Class 2021

“Several years ago I participated in a CIAR training event at my local church which turned into several annual events. This CIAR training provided the catalyst for starting numerous recovery groups in our community which has given freedom to scores of men trapped in sexual bondage. Sue exudes a love for God like few others I know and continues to help countless individuals Live In Freedom Everyday!”
