About Jocelyn

Jocelyn Elliott is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of practice in Kansas. She focuses on building a calm, respectful space where people can talk through painful experiences and confusing life moments.

She commonly helps people dealing with trauma and abuse, mood concerns like depression and bipolar, anxiety and panic, and problems with anger or addictions.

Background and approach

Jocelyn also supports those figuring out sexual or gender identity, navigating intimacy and relationship problems, and parenting stresses. She pays attention to how family history and life transitions shape current struggles. Her work blends Narrative Therapy with practical skills from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

That means she helps people name their stories, test unhelpful thinking, and learn coping tools for intense emotions. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Jocelyn offers several ways to stay connected, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

She frames therapy as a process of small changes that add up over time. People who want clear communication and steady practical help tend to find her approach useful. She works in English and practices in Kansas as an LSCSW.

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Jocelyn directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Online session options

How narrative and skills-based therapy work online

Jocelyn blends Narrative Therapy with cognitive and behavioral techniques to help people reshape the stories they tell about themselves and solve day-to-day problems. Narrative Therapy focuses on the meanings and patterns in a person’s life story, helping them separate from limiting narratives and notice alternative possibilities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and offers practical ways to change unhelpful patterns, useful for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jocelyn will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. She adapts the mix of narrative work and skills training to match current needs so sessions stay relevant and doable.

Online formats offer flexibility for different rhythms and needs. Video calls allow fuller face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when someone needs shorter, written exchanges between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
