Beverly Hodsden, LPC

Beverly Hodsden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 38 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common problems such as depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, trauma, and anger. Sessions focus on practical steps to manage feelings and make day-to-day life more workable.

Her style centers on listening and helping people notice what does and does not help them. She uses straightforward tools to reduce overwhelming thoughts and to change unhelpful patterns. That can mean looking at thoughts and behaviors, practicing small communication changes, or setting down a plan to handle addictive urges.

Beverly draws from Client-Centered Therapy to follow what matters most to each person. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that feed anger or anxiety. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques are used when someone wants clear, short-term steps toward a specific goal.

In work around trauma and abuse she incorporates Trauma-Focused Therapy to address painful memories and their effects on daily life. She pays attention to attachment and communication styles when relationships are strained. Practical coping skills and behavioral experiments are common parts of sessions.

Beverly also supports those dealing with grief, sleep or eating problems, ADHD, and career concerns. People who are worried about anger at home or work can expect a calm, direct approach that emphasizes concrete strategies and steady progress.
