Linda Levinson, LPCC

Linda Levinson is an Ohio-based licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with ten years of clinical experience. She began her career after earning a dual degree in mental health and substance abuse treatment and spent early years supporting people recovering from opioid addiction and co-occurring disorders. Linda brings that experience to work with a wide range of concerns including addiction, anxiety, depression, and grief.

She has substantial experience with process addictions like gambling, internet and gaming problems, exercise and shopping addiction, and sex and love addiction. Linda also supports people navigating sexual identity, sexual trauma, and related relationship challenges, and she works respectfully with clients from LGBTQIA communities.

Linda draws from several approaches to match each person's needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered listening, existential reflection, and mindfulness practices as tools to help people notice patterns and make changes. Sessions focus on identifying what holds someone back and on building strengths from their past.

Her practice also addresses practical life stressors such as parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness, work and career concerns, sleep problems, and compassion fatigue. Linda helps people cope with major life changes and long-term conditions without promising a specific outcome.

People who work with her can expect a collaborative tone. She helps clients set goals, try strategies, and adjust approaches when needed. Before booking, confirm current session options and scheduling details so they match your needs and routine.

How Linda’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when emotions are hard. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and managing life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, sleep problems, and mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches paying attention to the present moment in a kind way to reduce reactivity and improve focus, useful for stress, chronic pain, and coping with ongoing conditions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and then suggest which methods to try. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, and decisions about techniques are made together.

The original biography does not list specific online or in-person formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone continue care during major life changes or when mobility is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness practices to remote sessions so people can learn skills and practice them in everyday settings.
