Rising Stars: Meet Alli Lebowitz

Today we’d like to introduce you to Alli Lebowitz.

Hi Alli, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
For as long as I can remember, I have had a passion for helping others. This desire drove me to pursue undergraduate studies in psychology & human behavior, and ultimately to a master’s degree of science in social work. While there are many avenues for professional social workers, I have spent my 10+ year career within medical and mental health care. When the COVID19 pandemic began changing our world in 2020, I saw the need for therapists and mental health professionals skyrocket. Knowing that I could help abate this need, I opened up for private practice to offer high-quality therapy services to children, teens, adults & families. I do accept many major insurance plans as a way to ensure that I can serve as many clients as possible. My private therapy practice has since taken off and has proven to be incredibly rewarding.

I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
Working as a therapist during a global pandemic has proven to be challenging as I am navigating the same unknowns and concerns as my clients. Learning how to manage this as a healthcare provider has been a journey for which I have sought guidance, evidence based practice, and support.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I work within the medical social work field full time and also private therapy services to clients via telehealth sessions two to three days a week. I am very passionate about education and in addition to this, I supervisor and mentor future social workers who are seeking more advanced degrees and clinical licensure.

What makes you happy?
Spending quality time with my family and friends restores my happiness! Being able to disconnect from the pressures of daily life by laughing or sharing a meal with people I love is incredibly restorative. Exercise is a big part of my self-care routine and I feel incredibly happy after a good workout. I also love to spend time outdoors and at the beach soaking in sunshine!
