About Jessica

Jessica Sorbello is a licensed clinical social worker in New York with 11 years of practice experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, anger, low self-esteem, and sleep problems. Jessica aims to make the first step feel manageable and less overwhelming for someone looking for change.

Jessica keeps sessions direct and compassionate. She focuses on understanding emotions and finding alternative ways to cope. Conversations are meant to be open, nonjudgmental, and focused on practical next steps that fit everyday life.

Her background includes work across a range of concerns from mood disorders and ADHD to substance use and relationship strains. She draws on cognitive and behavioral tools alongside skills for managing intense emotions and building motivation for change. Mindfulness practices are used to help clients notice patterns and respond differently to difficult moments.

In sessions, Jessica helps people set clear goals and try small experiments between meetings. She emphasizes skill building for stress, better sleep habits, and managing urges or strong reactions. Progress is tracked in simple, concrete ways so people can see what helps.

Jessica encourages people to bring real problems from their days to therapy. She works collaboratively to identify what is useful and what to adjust. Her approach aims to support steady, practical steps toward a more manageable routine and improved rest.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting connection so clients feel heard and understood. This approach helps when people are working through grief, stress, or issues that affect sleep and daily routine.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It teaches small, practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and to try new behaviors that can improve mood and rest.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for handling strong emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. It can be useful for those dealing with intense anger, urges, or patterns that disrupt sleep and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels most manageable. Together they decide which methods to use and adjust them as progress unfolds.

If you are considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the profile. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Discuss practical preferences up front so sessions can be scheduled to fit daily routines and responsibilities.
