Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Welcome! My name is Jocelyn R. Elliott, LSCSW (Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker) located in Topeka, KS. I have over 16 years of experience providing individuals, couples, and families a safe place to explore challenges, alleviate emotional struggles and embrace their true selves.
I have experience working with the Foster Care system, providing clinical support for adult individuals experiencing crises at a local community mental health center, and was able to develop my skills as an advocate for the disenfranchised members of our society through each of those roles.
I am a member of WPATH, OutCare, and the National Association of Social Workers that further assisted me in my clinical skill development.
My practice is grounded in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and I am excited to announce I am furthering my education, focusing on learning all I can about The Polyvagal Theory.
I currently live with my two adult daughters, their partners, and two grandchildren. (I won’t even mention the five, no, six cats and the dog!) I am thoroughly addicted to binge-watching tv shows and Diet Mountain Dew.
I see individuals, couples, and families through virtual platforms as well as in-person (as needed). I have been in private practice since 2014.
At my core, I believe that every human has the right to reach their best self – as defined by THEM – and only them!
Currently, I am only available to schedule sessions via messaging as my daily session scheduling is subject to change. Once we have established a time, I make every effort to maintain that time for you every week. I find it promotes a sense of connection, responsibility, and consistency.
Sessions scheduled with me usually last approximately 60 minutes and occasionally last a little longer so I ask for your patience and be assured I will provide you with the time you need in your journey.

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life transitions, research and clinical experience indicate that remote therapy can be as effective as in-person work for most individuals.
A major benefit of online therapy is flexibility – clients can choose the format that suits them best, including video sessions, phone appointments, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care when circumstances change.
Therapists who provide remote services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch to a different therapist if they feel another fit would be better. For many people, online therapy expands access to consistent, professional support while offering the practical advantages of distance and convenience.
