Tamika Hodges, LCSW, LSCSW

Tamika Hodges is a licensed clinical social worker with six years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. She holds LCSW and LSCSW credentials and practices in Kansas. Tamika focuses on practical support and clear steps people can use in everyday life.

She centers sessions on each person's strengths. Tamika treats trauma and abuse concerns with care and helps people rebuild trust in themselves. She also helps with grief, parenting strain, addiction concerns, and issues related to identity and LGBT experiences.

Her approach blends Attachment-Based work with Client-Centered care. That means she pays attention to how relationships shape feelings and treats each person with respect and empathy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are used when they fit the client’s goals.

Sessions tend to focus on real problems and small experiments clients can try between meetings. Tamika listens, helps name patterns, and works with clients to set achievable steps. She aims to make change feel doable rather than overwhelming.

People who reach out can expect straightforward conversation and practical skills for coping with life changes. Tamika supports clients across a wide range of concerns, including self-esteem, eating issues, bipolar mood concerns, caregiving stress, and other complex situations. She encourages anyone ready to take a step toward change to try a short matching questionnaire to begin the process.

How her approaches shape online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect how people feel and connect. It helps when patterns in close relationships cause stress or make it hard to trust. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. Sessions follow the client's pace, with the therapist reflecting and supporting the person's own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, when used, helps break down unhelpful thinking and behavior into specific steps people can change to feel better.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tamika will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. She listens to what matters most and adjusts tools and pacing so the plan fits the client rather than the other way around.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find remote sessions helpful for maintaining consistency between appointments while working on relationship patterns, coping skills, and emotional regulation.
