About Beverly

Beverly Hodsden is a licensed professional counselor with 38 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. She works with individuals facing relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, and questions about identity and life purpose. Beverly practices from a thoughtful, person-centered stance and aims to make sessions practical and clear.

Her work often draws on Systemic therapy to look at patterns in relationships and daily life. She also uses Client-Centered ideas to listen deeply and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Background and approach

Sessions typically focus on simple, achievable steps clients can try between meetings. Beverly has long experience addressing mood disorders, panic, ADHD-related struggles, and addictive behaviors. She pays attention to attachment issues, body image, codependency, and communication problems.

First responder stress and multicultural concerns are also areas she recognizes in her practice. People bring a wide range of concerns, from sleeping and eating difficulties to career and midlife questions. Beverly aims to help people build self-esteem, manage anger, and find direction during life transitions.

She frames work as practical problem solving combined with emotional support. Therapy can include motivational interviewing and solution-focused steps when clients want short-term goals. Beverly emphasizes collaborative planning so each person leaves with a clear next step.

Her New Jersey practice offers several session formats to match different needs.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Systemic work looks at patterns in relationships and everyday life to find small changes that shift how things feel. In online sessions this can mean tracking interactions, identifying repeated cycles, and planning concrete actions to test between meetings.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person in front of the therapist. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so clients can clarify goals and feel supported while they try new ways of coping.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice thoughts that lead to unhelpful behaviors and then practice alternative responses. Online CBT often uses brief exercises, homework, and real-time coaching during video or chat sessions to build new habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Beverly will explore goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then collaborate on a plan. That plan may combine Systemic observations, person-centered listening, and CBT techniques depending on what the client needs.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client see each other for fuller conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when screen time is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging allow short check-ins, quick problem solving, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
