About Josephina

Josephina Leveroni is a licensed social worker practicing in California. She holds MA LICSW and CA LCSW credentials and brings five years of clinical experience to her work. She focuses on helping people sort through stress, anxiety, trauma, and relationship struggles.

She aims to be straightforward and approachable in session. Before moving to California she worked in hospital and residential settings supporting a range of ages, with a focus on young people.

Background and approach

That background shaped her comfort with crisis situations and with helping clients manage strong emotions. She has worked with concerns such as addiction, domestic violence, grief, eating and sleep problems, and ADHD. Her sessions emphasize practical skills alongside emotional processing.

She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses EMDR to address traumatic memories when appropriate and attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships affect feelings. Josephina aims for clear, honest conversations.

She tries to create a space where people can speak without judgment. Sessions often include teaching coping skills, practicing new ways of communicating, and making step-by-step plans for change. She offers multiple online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

People who prefer brief check-ins or longer conversations can choose the format that fits their daily life. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Josephina draws from cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients notice and change thinking and behavior patterns that keep them stuck. CBT often involves short exercises, practical homework, and step-by-step plans that address anxiety, depression, and everyday stress.

She also uses EMDR as a method to process traumatic memories when that approach fits a person's needs; EMDR involves structured sets of attention and processing to reduce the emotional intensity of past events. Attachment-based ideas are woven into work about relationships, helping people understand how early bonds shape current patterns and how to build healthier connections.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on progress and feedback.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction and full conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break at work. Live chat or messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, coaching-style support, or between-session contact depending on what the therapist and client agree on.
