About Leva Talton

Leva Talton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in the state of Florida with over eight years of experience practicing as a psychotherapist. She earned a B.A. in Psychology, cum laude, from the University of South Florida with a minor in Public Administration, and completed an MSW in Clinical Social Work at Columbia University, graduating summa cum laude.

Her clinical work spans a wide age range, from children as young as five to individuals in late adulthood. She has supported people facing anxiety, ADHD, autism spectrum concerns, Bipolar I and II, co-occurring disorders, depression, relationship and family challenges, LGBTQ+ issues, schizophrenia, PTSD, and trauma.

Talton approaches therapy with warmth and a nonjudgmental stance, aiming to meet each person where they are. She acknowledges that life presents unexpected turns and difficulties, and focuses on helping clients navigate those moments with practical support and collaboration.

Her treatment style blends mindfulness with cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic elements, along with acceptance and commitment and solution-focused techniques. Clients are invited to be active participants in care, with treatment plans built around collaboratively agreed-upon goals tailored to individual needs and priorities.

She often invokes the words of Eleanor Roosevelt - "You must do that which you think you cannot" - as a reminder of the possibilities that can emerge through committed therapeutic work.
