Beverly Hodsden , LPC

Beverly Hodsden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 38 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, and issues many women face. Beverly listens closely and offers straightforward guidance so people can start feeling steadier.

Her sessions combine a person-centered attitude with focused strategies. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small doable changes. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck about making changes.

Beverly works with concerns ranging from panic and mood disorders to grief, parenting strain, and body image. She also supports people facing career transitions, compassion fatigue, and life-purpose questions. Her practice notes LGBT and multicultural concerns as areas she attends to.

In the therapy room she aims for clear, concrete steps. Conversations often lead to short-term goals and homework that fit daily life. She helps people practice communication skills and rebuild confidence after setbacks.

Clients who prefer remote work can connect by phone, video, chat, or text messaging. Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Beverly offers care in English and does not accept international clients.

Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person's own concerns and pace, offering empathy and support while the client leads the topics. It helps when someone needs a trusting space to sort through emotions and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect, and it uses simple experiments and homework to test new ways of coping. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and mood challenges.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational style that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. It is often used when someone struggles with addictions, unhealthy habits, or finding the motivation to try new strategies.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Beverly collaborates with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. The emphasis is on practical steps chosen together rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling more accessible. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can fit a busy schedule or need less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats aim to add flexibility so therapy can fit into real life.
