About Beverly
Beverly Hodsden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 38 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and addiction. Her practice also addresses codependency and related difficulties like people-pleasing and boundary struggles.
Beverly focuses on straightforward, practical work in sessions. She listens to how daily life is affected and helps people name the patterns that keep them stuck. Conversations move from understanding what is happening now to trying different ways of responding in relationships and at work.
Her background includes long-term work with mood disorders, attachment concerns, and trauma recovery. She uses approaches that encourage active problem-solving and clearer thinking about choices. That can help with symptoms like panic, low self-esteem, disrupted sleep, or persistent worry.
Beverly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also uses Client-Centered and Trauma-Focused work to process difficult memories and reactions. Sessions often blend these tools so people can practice manageable changes between meetings.
People who come to her for help with addiction or grief get a mix of motivational interviewing and practical planning. Beverly supports people as they weigh options, set short-term goals, and build routines that reduce chaos. Her style is direct and practical, aimed at making small, reliable shifts in everyday life.
How sessions work
How Beverly’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people talk through what matters most. It helps clarify values and priorities and is useful when someone feels lost in a relationship or overwhelmed by others' needs.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going. It is hands-on and helps with anxiety, panic, low mood, and patterns like people-pleasing by testing small behavior changes.
Motivational Interviewing supports someone who is weighing change, such as reducing substance use or shifting caregiving roles. It uses short goal-focused conversations to build readiness and practical next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Beverly will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. The decision is collaborative and can shift as progress is made.
