About Jessica
Jessica Odell, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and CSW, is licensed in Colorado and has 12 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, coping with life changes, LGBT concerns, relationship and family issues, parenting, anger, self-esteem, coaching, and ADHD. Her stated approach is to shape conversations and plans around each person's needs.
Jessica uses straightforward conversation to help people identify what is most pressing. She listens for patterns that contribute to ongoing stress and helps clients test small changes. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps that can be tried between meetings.
Her methods include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, narrative techniques, motivational interviewing, and EMDR. These are used to address both single issues and overlapping problems, such as grief mixed with anxiety or trauma reactions that affect relationships.
Jessica emphasizes respect and sensitivity in interactions. She guides people through decision points like separation, parenting challenges, or adapting after loss. She also offers coaching-style support for those looking for concrete behavior change.
Over her career she has worked with a wide range of concerns, including abandonment, attachment issues, blended family challenges, codependency, and isolation. People coming for help can expect direct, practical conversation and a focus on measurable steps to reduce distress.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's priorities and preferences. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what matters most, and helps shape goals. This approach is useful for building trust and clarifying personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and tests practical alternatives. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks problems into steps and skills that can be practiced between sessions.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) addresses distress after traumatic events by combining focused memory work with guided bilateral stimulation. It is often chosen when trauma memories continue to cause strong emotional or physical reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and help decide what fits the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commute time. Ask about specific scheduling and session lengths when you complete the matching questionnaire.
