Jessica Sorbello

Jessica Sorbello is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, addiction challenges, grief, anger, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, and other life transitions. She aims to make first steps feel manageable for someone feeling overwhelmed.

She creates a calm, judgment-free space where clients can talk through feelings and reactions. Sessions focus on understanding emotions and building alternative coping skills that fit daily life. Jessica emphasizes small, practical changes that add up over time rather than quick fixes.

Her approach blends client-centered work with structured tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing are used when they match a person’s goals. Together these methods help with mood regulation, impulse control, and clearer decision making.

Jessica draws on 11 years of professional experience in clinical settings in New York. That background shapes a straightforward style - listening first, then planning steps a client can try between sessions. The aim is to build confidence and healthier habits at a realistic pace.

People who come to her often want support for coping with loss, changing addictive patterns, managing anger, or dealing with identity and body-image concerns. Jessica works to empower clients so they feel more in control of choices and better able to face everyday stressors.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Jessica blends cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy into straightforward, online-friendly sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior, then teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and compulsive behaviors. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) focuses on skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal choices, which can be useful for impulsivity, intense emotions, and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That conversation guides whether sessions lean more toward CBT exercises, DBT skills training, mindfulness practice, or motivational interviewing techniques.

Confirm the available session formats before booking to match therapy with daily life. Many people appreciate online options because they can fit sessions into a workday, avoid travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. Online sessions can make it easier to practice skills between appointments and to apply new coping strategies directly in everyday routines.
