About Jessica
Jessica Sorbello is a licensed clinical social worker with 11 years of experience based in New York. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, anger, low self-esteem, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Her approach is direct and down-to-earth.
She aims to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings and take practical steps forward. Jessica creates an open space where clients can share thoughts without judgment. She focuses on helping people understand their emotions and learn new coping skills.
Background and approach
Sessions are aimed at concrete change rather than abstract talk alone. In practice she uses a mix of methods shown to help with mood and behavior changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Client-Centered approaches are part of how she works.
Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing also inform her style when appropriate. Clients can expect a collaborative process. Goals are set together and adjusted as progress is made.
The work often includes learning tools to manage impulses, reduce anger, and cope with grief or loss. Jessica has assisted people dealing with a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, bipolar disorder, eating and sleeping issues, and substance use. She also addresses attachment and family-related problems, body image, and feelings of guilt or abandonment.
Her background supports practical problem solving and steady emotional support.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Jessica blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into practical sessions that focus on changing unhelpful thought patterns and managing intense emotions. CBT helps identify and shift thoughts that fuel anxiety or anger, while DBT offers skills for distress tolerance and emotional regulation. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to make room for the client's voice and preferences in each session.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review goals and try methods together to see what fits. Treatment plans are adjusted as needs and preferences become clearer, so the process stays collaborative and goal-focused.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video can be used for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited, and messaging for brief updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain steady progress from different locations.
