About Beverly

Beverly Hodsden is a licensed therapist (LPC) practicing in New Jersey who draws on 38 years of clinical experience to help people navigate complex emotional and behavioral challenges.

Background and approach

She emphasizes a client-centered stance that honors each person's individual story while integrating evidence-informed methods to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship difficulties, and ADHD. Beverly frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at building practical coping skills and deeper self-understanding.

Her work supports people coping with grief, mood disorders, body image and attachment issues, substance use concerns, and stress related to career or life transitions. Beverly uses approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy alongside motivational strategies and solution-focused techniques to create tailored plans that match a client's needs and goals.

She focuses on strengthening communication, managing symptoms, and fostering resilience so clients can make lasting changes in their lives.

Practical therapy approaches for online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping clients explore their values and goals; it supports people who need a supportive space to clarify what matters and to build self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, making it useful for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and many daily struggles that benefit from skill-building. Trauma-Focused Therapy aims to help process and integrate traumatic experiences while reducing their impact on current functioning, which can be beneficial for those recovering from abuse or other traumatic events.

Deciding which approach will work best is a collaborative process. Beverly will discuss goals, preferences, and symptom patterns with each person and adapt methods over time, combining techniques as needed to create an individualized plan. Clients are invited to give feedback so the therapist and client can fine-tune strategies together.

Online therapy with Beverly is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, manage symptoms from home, and access therapy without commuting, while allowing licensed professionals to deliver structured, approach-driven treatment.
