About Jessica

Jessica Sorbello is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, anger, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, and mood challenges. Jessica aims to create a calm, judgment-free space where clients can talk about difficult feelings and start making changes.

She uses clear, practical approaches to strengthen emotional understanding and build new coping skills. Sessions focus on identifying what triggers strong reactions and practicing ways to respond differently. Jessica supports clients through life transitions, mood disorders, ADHD-related struggles, and concerns about eating, sleeping, and substance use.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She listens first, then helps clients set realistic goals and steps they can try between sessions. Techniques may include talking through thought patterns, learning grounding and mindfulness practices, and testing small behavior changes.

Jessica brings eleven years of professional experience to her work as an LCSW. She emphasizes empowerment and gradual progress rather than quick fixes. Clients who want a practical, compassionate approach to anger and related concerns may find her way of working useful.

People who choose to work with her can expect a focus on skills they can use in daily life. Jessica encourages curiosity about emotions and steady practice of new habits to support longer-term change.

How Jessica’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals based on their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, then try methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and comfort levels become clearer.

Confirm the session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in their everyday routines and bring real-life situations into sessions for immediate feedback.
