About Tina

Tina Leavitt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices in Rhode Island. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Rhode Island College and earned her Master of Social Work from the same institution. Tina is credentialed as LICSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), a designation that reflects advanced clinical training and licensure.

Tina focuses her work on children, adolescents, and families, offering a supportive space where emotions and behaviors can be explored and managed. She works collaboratively with parents and young people to identify and remove barriers that interfere with daily life, using a warm, strength-based approach that emphasizes clients' existing resources and capacities.

Her clinical style incorporates creative, developmentally appropriate interventions to engage children and teens. These methods include play therapy and art therapy as ways to build skills, along with mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques to address thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Tina also uses collaborative and proactive problem-solving strategies to help families develop practical routines and communication patterns that support long-term growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Tina Leavitt often draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and respected. This approach focuses on the individual's goals and strengths, making it helpful for children, teens, and families who need a collaborative space to explore emotions and relationships.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-focused, and it can be effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.

Mindfulness Therapy is another component of her work, teaching simple attention and breathing practices that help young people and caregivers manage stress and build emotional regulation skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Tina works collaboratively with each person and family to determine which combination of methods best matches their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting plans as progress is made.

Online sessions - including video calls, phone appointments, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access care from home or other convenient locations. These formats offer flexibility in how, when, and where people engage with a licensed professional, supporting continuity of care and practical participation for families.
