Lindsay Levine, MA

Psychotherapist

Verified

“When life is shifting faster than you can catch your breath, or anxiety has quietly settled into the background of your days, therapy can give you room to slow down and find your footing again. I help adults across New York State work through anxiety, major life changes, parenting stress, grief, and the relationships that matter most to them.”

About me

I’m Lindsay Levine, LMHC, a therapist and co-owner of Rhythm Wellness Mental Health Counseling, where I offer virtual therapy to adults throughout New York State. Many of the people I work with look steady from the outside. They’re managing careers, raising kids, caring for aging parents, or stepping into a new chapter, and underneath it all they feel stretched thin, uncertain, or quietly overwhelmed. Some come to me after a big change like a move, a breakup, a loss, or becoming a parent. Others can’t point to one thing. They just know they haven’t felt like themselves in a while. In our sessions, you can expect warmth, honesty, and a pace that fits you. I listen closely, ask questions that help you see your patterns more clearly, and gently challenge you when it would help. You won’t be handed a script. Together we’ll figure out what you need, whether that’s practical tools for this week or space to understand why something keeps hurting. Before Rhythm Wellness, I worked in a member assistance program supporting New York City educators. That work showed me how much pressure people carry silently while holding everything together for everyone else. Rhythm Wellness is in-network with insurance. If you’d like to see whether we’re a good fit, book a free 15-minute call.

Approach

My work is relational at its core. The connection we build is one of the most meaningful parts of therapy, so my first priority is creating a space where you feel understood rather than evaluated. From there, I draw on several approaches depending on what you’re facing. Psychodynamic and interpersonal work help us explore how earlier experiences and relationship patterns shape the way you feel today. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) offers concrete strategies for untangling anxious thoughts and shifting habits that keep you stuck. When part of you wants change and part of you isn’t so sure, motivational interviewing helps us sort through that ambivalence without pressure. Positive psychology brings attention to your strengths and what’s already working, and trauma-focused CBT gives us a structured way to process painful experiences when that’s part of your story. My aim is to offer both insight and relief: a clearer understanding of why you feel the way you do, and skills you can use between sessions. Therapy with me is collaborative. You set the direction, and I’ll help you get there with care and steady support.

Anxiety: Anxiety doesn’t always look like panic. It can show up as overthinking, restless sleep, irritability, or a constant sense that something is about to go wrong. We’ll work to understand what fuels your anxiety and build practical ways to quiet it, so it stops running the show. Life Transitions: Even welcome changes can knock you off balance. Whether you’re starting a new job, moving, ending a relationship, getting married, becoming a parent, or adjusting to an empty nest, I’ll help you make sense of what’s shifting and steady yourself as you adapt. Parenting Stress: Parenting can be deeply rewarding and completely exhausting at the same time. If you’re feeling depleted, guilty, or at odds with your partner about how to raise your kids, therapy offers space to care for yourself and reconnect with the parent you want to be. Depression: Depression can drain the color out of everyday life, making it hard to find energy, motivation, or meaning. Together we’ll explore what’s weighing on you and take small, realistic steps toward feeling more like yourself. Grief and Loss: Grief follows its own timeline, whether you’ve lost someone you love, a relationship, a career, or a future you’d pictured. I offer a patient, compassionate space to honor that loss and find ways to carry it forward. Relationship Issues: Whether you’re dealing with conflict with a partner, strained family dynamics, or friendships that leave you drained, we’ll look at the patterns that keep repeating and practice new ways of communicating and setting boundaries. All sessions are virtual and available to adults across New York State.
