About Linda
Linda Levinson is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio with ten years of work in mental health and substance abuse care. She began her career after earning a dual degree in mental health and substance abuse treatment and has focused much of her practice on recovery from opioid use and co-occurring disorders. Linda also supports people facing anxiety, depression, stress, and low self-confidence.
She has experience helping people with process addictions such as shopping, video gaming, internet use, exercise, gambling, and sex and love addictions. She also works with those coping with trauma, grief, guilt, shame, anger, and sleep difficulties. Linda has worked with people in the LGBTQIA community and assists those processing sexual identity issues and sexual trauma.
Linda draws on a mix of therapeutic approaches to match what each person needs. She uses acceptance, mindfulness, and cognitive strategies alongside a client-centered stance to identify obstacles and strengths. This helps clients see practical steps they can take in daily life.
Her style emphasizes acceptance and empowerment. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical skills, and making use of past experience to support change. Linda also addresses relationship issues, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, and workplace or career pressures.
People seeking help with addiction, trauma, or persistent anxiety will find direct, goal-focused work that aims to reduce barriers and build useful habits. Prospective clients should review session options and scheduling details before booking.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters most in life and take small, values-based steps even when thoughts or feelings feel heavy. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and difficulties that block day-to-day functioning.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical tools to change them. It often helps with anxiety, mood problems, sleep issues, and managing urges related to addiction.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Linda will collaborate with each person to decide which mix of methods fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That process is adaptive and guided by what works in real life rather than by a single technique.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the therapist's current session options before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time so people can stay consistent with appointments. Licensed professionals can combine practical tools, homework, and conversation to help clients make steady progress without forcing a particular rhythm of care.
