About Jessica

Jessica Hodges is a Kansas-licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, mood difficulties, and related life changes.

Background and approach

With 10 years of professional experience, she draws on evidence-informed methods to support people facing a range of issues including grief, addiction, body image and eating concerns, ADHD, and intimacy- or career-related struggles. Hodges practices from a collaborative, nonjudgmental stance that encourages clients to explore thoughts and emotions openly.

She blends cognitive behavioral techniques with attachment-informed perspectives and client-centered care to help people build practical coping skills, improve communication, and strengthen emotional regulation. Motivational interviewing and elements of dialectical behavior therapy are also part of her toolkit when addressing motivation, distress tolerance, or pattern change.

Clients seeking flexible online options can work with Jessica through video, phone, live chat, or text-based sessions. She holds the KS LSCSW credential (LSCSW 05761) and approaches each case by tailoring strategies to the individual’s needs and goals while honoring their pace and preferences.

Online approaches that combine skills and attachment work

Jessica integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Attachment-Based Therapy into online work to address both practical symptom relief and relational patterns. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to early and ongoing relational patterns that influence how people form bonds and respond to stress, which can be useful for relationship challenges, intimacy-related issues, and attachment concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with each client to identify goals, preferences, and responses to early interventions, adjusting methods as needed so therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats allow people to engage in skills practice, emotional processing, and motivational conversations from locations that suit their schedules, supporting consistent progress without requiring in-person visits.
