About Jessica
Jessica Hodges is a Kansas-licensed social worker with the credential LSCSW and 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, depression, addictions, anger, and other life pressures. Jessica uses straightforward conversation to uncover what matters most and to help people change what isn’t working.
She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and then offers practical tools people can use between sessions. That can mean learning skills to manage strong feelings, shifting unhelpful thoughts, or trying different communication habits with others. Sessions are conversational and focused on small, doable steps you can use right away.
Jessica draws on several approaches to guide the work, including attachment-based ideas about how early relationships shape reactions, client-centered techniques that keep the person’s goals central, and cognitive behavioral methods that target thoughts and behaviors. She also uses DBT skills and motivational interviewing when these fit the issue at hand.
Her background includes supporting people from a range of experiences and identities. Jessica pays attention to both current stresses and past wounds so people can reduce reactivity and build steadier patterns. She encourages honest, practical discussion about setbacks and progress.
If you are tired of losing your temper, holding in anger, or living with someone else’s intense feelings, she helps people learn clearer ways to respond. To begin, you will complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to talk about goals.
How her approaches translate to online work
Jessica often uses attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral therapy in her practice. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape how someone reacts now and helps people notice patterns in close relationships. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and replacing them with more helpful actions.She treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. Together you will talk about your goals, try strategies that match your needs, and adjust the plan if something does not fit. The therapist will help you weigh approaches and choose skills that feel doable in daily life.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule therapy around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use video or phone options depending on what works best for them. These practical choices help people fit therapy into routine life while trying new ways to respond to anger and stress.
