About

Jocelyn R. Elliott is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker practicing in Topeka, Kansas, with 18 years of clinical experience supporting individuals, couples, and families. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can explore challenges, reduce emotional distress, and work toward living authentically as defined by themselves.

Her background includes work with the foster care system and clinical support for adults experiencing crises at a community mental health center, experiences that helped her develop strong advocacy skills for disenfranchised members of the community. She is an active member of WPATH, OutCare, and the National Association of Social Workers, professional involvement that has informed her clinical approach.

Jocelyn’s therapeutic practice is grounded in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and she is currently furthering her education with a focus on the Polyvagal Theory to deepen her understanding of nervous system-based approaches to healing.

She has maintained a private practice since 2014 and sees individuals, couples, and families via virtual platforms as well as in-person when needed. Jocelyn values consistent scheduling and, when a regular appointment time is established, she makes every effort to preserve that weekly time to support connection and accountability.

At home she shares life with two adult daughters, their partners, and two grandchildren, along with six cats and a dog. She openly admits to being thoroughly addicted to binge-watching television shows and Diet Mountain Dew.

Currently, Jocelyn is scheduling sessions via messaging only, as her daily session times are subject to change. Typical sessions last approximately 60 minutes and may occasionally run a bit longer; she asks for patience and assures clients she will provide the time needed for their work together.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health 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.
