Levana Slabodnick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, LCSW
I provide neurodivergent-affirming therapy for Autistic and ADHD adults who are ready to move from a deficit-based view of themselves toward radical self-acceptance. I believe that you are the ultimate expert on your own life, and my role is to partner with you in identifying the unique strengths of your neurobiology to reach your personal goals. Together, we will work to unlearn systemic shame, navigate burnout, and build a life that honors your sensory and emotional needs rather than forcing you to mask for the comfort of others. My approach is collaborative, trauma-focused, and dedicated to helping you appreciate the person you already are while advocating for the support you deserve.

Columbus is home to Ohio State University — one of the largest universities in the country — creating sustained demand for therapists specializing in academic pressure, young adult identity, and sports psychology. The city's position as Ohio's state capital and a growing tech and healthcare hub has accelerated demographic change, with therapists increasingly addressing burnout and adjustment among a fast-growing professional population. OhioHealth, Nationwide Children's Hospital, and the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center provide major institutional mental health anchors for the region. Columbus also has one of the largest Somali communities in the United States, making culturally competent and multilingual therapists who specialize in refugee trauma and identity an important part of the local therapy landscape.
