About Linda
Linda Levinson is an Ohio LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with ten years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and other life changes. She also sees clients dealing with sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder.
Levinson began her career after earning a dual degree in mental health and substance abuse treatment. Early work focused on opioid recovery and co-occurring disorders, which shaped her approach to addictive behaviors and trauma. Over the years she expanded to process addictions like shopping, gaming, internet use, exercise, gambling, and sex and love addictions.
She has substantial experience supporting people in the LGBTQIA community and people exploring sexual identity. She also works with clients who are navigating non-monogamous or open relationships, and with those processing sexual trauma, grief, or sexual dysfunction.
Her practice draws on several clinical approaches to help people notice what holds them back and identify strengths from their past. Sessions can include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, existential reflection, and mindfulness-based practices. Levinson describes the work as focused on clear goals and practical steps.
People who book with her can expect conversations about concrete behaviors, values, and coping strategies. She uses motivational interviewing and direct problem-solving when appropriate, alongside reflective listening and exploration of meaning. The aim is steady progress, one step at a time.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and making steady behavior changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that cause distress.She also uses client-centered techniques that emphasize listening and reflecting back what clients say to clarify goals and next steps. Together these approaches aim to combine skill training with attention to what matters to the individual. Finding the right mix is collaborative; she will work with the client to decide which methods suit their needs and preferences.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time on appointment days. Therapists often adapt exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices so they work well across distances, which keeps the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
