Clinical Social Work Practice – Beth Levine Counseling
Beth Levine Counseling is a telehealth mental health practice led by Beth Levine, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of clinical experience. She holds additional certifications in Internal Family Systems (IFS Level I) and Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST), reflecting a clinical focus on trauma-competent care and systemic therapeutic frameworks. All sessions are conducted through a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform called Sessions, and no in-person sessions are offered.
The practice serves clients in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. Geographic areas specifically mentioned on the website include Bethesda, Rockville, Chevy Chase, Potomac, Gaithersburg, Georgetown, AU Park, Capitol Hill, and Arlington. Because services are delivered entirely through telehealth, geographic proximity to a physical office is not required for clients located within these three jurisdictions.
Services offered include individual therapy, couples counseling, and teletherapy spanning a range of clinical specialties. Areas of focus include depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma, grief and loss, anger management, perfectionism, self-esteem, pet bereavement, climate change anxiety, and support for clients who identify as vegan. Therapeutic approaches incorporated into practice include Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST).
Beth Levine offers a complimentary 20-minute phone consultation for prospective clients to assess fit before beginning formal treatment. Session fees are not listed on the website. Payment is collected after each session via personal check or IVY Pay, a HIPAA-compliant credit card processing platform. The practice does not bill insurance directly; clients may submit session receipts to their insurance carrier for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Year of practice establishment is not stated on the site.
Contact information: phone 301-279-7779, email BethLCounseling@aol.com. The practice operates by appointment only across Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. IVY Pay is designed specifically for healthcare providers and processes payments without storing card data in the therapist’s system. The 20-minute complimentary consultation is a phone call, not a full clinical session, and is intended to allow both the clinician and the prospective client to assess fit before beginning formal work.
