About Tara
Tara Levine is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with nine years of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or caught in repeating patterns such as anxiety, overthinking, mood swings, and relationship struggles. She commonly works with concerns like addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, stress, anger, and intimacy-related issues.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She explains what is happening, points out repeating patterns, and offers doable steps to change them. Sessions focus on clear strategies clients can use between meetings so progress shows up in daily life.
Levine has worked across multiple levels of care, including higher-acuity settings, and brings that experience into how she structures treatment plans. She draws on therapies that target thinking, behavior, and emotional regulation to address both everyday problems and more complex issues such as post-traumatic stress and substance use.
Conversations are direct but respectful; the emphasis is on real-world application rather than clinical jargon. She helps clients identify small, sustainable changes that reduce distress and improve relationships and functioning.
People who prefer practical, plainspoken guidance about mood, addiction, and relationship patterns may find her style a good fit. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Before booking, confirm the current session formats offered.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and clarifies personal values to guide action. It can be useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and problems where avoidance keeps someone stuck.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers practical exercises and skill-building to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and to change unhelpful thinking patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It is often used when mood swings, intense emotions, or relationship conflicts are present.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which approaches match their goals and daily life. That collaborative process means methods can be adjusted as progress is tracked.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow short check-ins when a full in-person visit would be difficult. Talk with the therapist about practical needs and preferences so sessions can be arranged to suit everyday life.
