About Jocelyn
Jocelyn Elliott is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) in Kansas with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing anger, anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship struggles. Jocelyn also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, parenting questions, and issues related to sexual and gender identity.
Her practice focuses on clear, practical work. Sessions look at what leads to strong reactions and build skills to respond differently. She uses evidence-informed approaches to help people manage impulses and rebuild trust in relationships.
Jocelyn often helps people untangle family of origin problems, communication breakdowns, and codependency patterns. She also addresses concerns such as addiction, bipolar disorder, body image, and career stress. Clients bring both immediate struggles and long-standing patterns, and the work moves between coping skills and deeper emotional processing.
Therapy with her includes learning concrete strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy while also exploring attachment and emotion through Emotionally-Focused and narrative approaches. Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing are woven in when they serve the goals of reducing reactivity and increasing intentional choices.
People who prefer direct feedback and practical skill-building tend to find her approach useful. She encourages steady progress through short-term skill practice alongside longer-term reflection. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to outline goals.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In online sessions that can mean setting small tasks between meetings, tracking reactions, and practicing alternative responses to anger or anxiety. DBT teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Online meetings can include role-plays, coaching through practice skills, and building a brief plan for when strong feelings arise.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jocelyn collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. That collaboration includes checking what feels manageable and adjusting pace, skills, and topics as work progresses.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is tight, or avoid travel for routine work. Licensed professionals can guide practical practice between sessions so new skills are tested in everyday situations rather than only discussed during appointments.
