About Jessica
Jessica Odell is a Colorado licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 12 years of professional experience. She helps adults manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and related struggles.
Jessica uses straightforward conversation to identify what is most disruptive in a person’s day. She listens for patterns that keep problems looping, and then works with clients to try different ways of responding. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings, not just talk about problems.
Her toolbox includes client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, EMDR, motivational interviewing, and narrative approaches. That means she can help with shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, processing painful memories with EMDR when appropriate, and clarifying values and goals through motivational and narrative methods.
Jessica frames goals in concrete terms - reducing irritability at home, handling frustration at work, or slowing impulsive reactions. She pays attention to how past attachments and life events shape current patterns, and she works with clients to build new habits for stress and anger management.
People who come for help can expect steady, no-nonsense conversations about what is and isn’t working. The emphasis is on practical change and ongoing problem solving, with steps you can practice between sessions.
How sessions work
How Jessica uses therapy approaches online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's concerns and priorities. It involves listening, reflecting, and shaping sessions around what matters most to the individual. This approach helps when someone needs a calm place to sort through anger and decide next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear strategies for interrupting automatic reactions like snapping or impulsive behavior, and includes exercises to practice new responses between sessions.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a method used to process upsetting memories that continue to drive strong emotional reactions. When memories fuel anger or reactivity, EMDR can be an option to reduce that intensity under a therapist's guidance.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will collaborate with the client to pick methods that fit their goals, comfort level, and the problems they bring. That choice can change over time as progress is made.
Confirm current session delivery options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, allow for shorter check-ins during a workday, or let someone choose audio-only rather than video for lower bandwidth needs. Licensed professionals use these practical options to help therapy fit into everyday life.
