About Sheree

Sheree Levitsky, LCSW, helps adults handle major life shifts and ongoing stress. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use now. Her approach is calm and collaborative, aimed at making change manageable one step at a time.

She draws on 12 years of clinical experience in social work and counseling. Her background includes work with older adults and people managing chronic illness and caregiving stress. That experience shapes how she helps people facing grief, family strain, career transitions, and health-related challenges.

Sessions use straightforward tools from Client-Centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused work. That means conversations center on what matters to the person, identifying useful thinking patterns, and setting clear, doable goals. Sheree helps clients spot strengths they already have and apply them to tough situations.

People come to her for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting concerns, and coping with life changes such as illness, loss, or career shifts. She also supports those dealing with trauma, LGBT issues, intimacy concerns, and compassion fatigue. She works with challenges like chronic pain, caregiver stress, and blended family dynamics.

Sheree holds a Master of Social Work and practices in Virginia as a licensed clinical social worker. Conversations are in English and she accepts international clients. Prospective clients choose therapy by completing an intake questionnaire and scheduling based on availability.

How Sheree Uses Practical Approaches Online

Sheree uses client-centered therapy to focus sessions on the person in front of her, listening closely and responding to what matters most. This approach helps clarify values and priorities and supports people making life changes.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts, feelings, and behavior links. That can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical ways to shift unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Solution-focused therapy rounds out her work with short-term goal setting and steps you can try between sessions to see quick progress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. The plan can change over time as needs shift and progress is made.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people meet from different time zones when international arrangements are required. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to remote sessions while focusing on practical steps and measurable goals.
