Clinician

My name is Cheryl Levy. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and director of LI Counseling, LLC, with 40 years of experience. My goal is to help people navigate their emotional journey through the healing process. All clinicians at LI Counseling will work with you to locate strengths, validate truths and identify patterns that no longer serve as helpful in meeting your goals.
