About Sheree

Sheree Levitsky, LCSW, works with adults seeking practical support for stress, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship strains, family challenges, chronic illness, career transitions, and related life changes.

Background and approach

She brings 12 years of clinical experience and a background in social work to help clients explore coping strategies, clarify goals, and draw on their own strengths. Her style blends client-centered attention with solution-focused and cognitive behavioral tools to address thoughts, behaviors, and problem-solving skills.

Levitsky has provided community-based case management and therapeutic support for older adults and adults with disabilities during her time with Fairfax County Adult Services, experience that informs her sensitive approach to aging, caregiving, and chronic health concerns. She is also a Certified Grief Educator and holds an active Virginia license (LCSW 0904008774).

Clients who seek a collaborative, strengths-based therapist will find an emphasis on practical techniques alongside empathic listening. Therapy emphasizes building resources, improving communication, and developing manageable steps for change while respecting each person’s pace and life context.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support



Sheree Levitsky blends cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused methods to support online clients. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to distress and learning practical skills to shift those patterns; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes clients' existing strengths and small, achievable steps toward change, helping people move forward when facing relationship challenges, life transitions, or caregiving stress.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Levitsky works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions and pacing based on what a client wants to accomplish and adjusts strategies as progress unfolds.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexible ways to connect that fit into busy schedules or when in-person care is not convenient. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care during life changes and provide options for people who prefer shorter check-ins or more frequent messaging alongside scheduled sessions.
