About Tamika
Tamika Hodges is a licensed clinical social worker who practices in Kansas. She brings six years of experience supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and the stress that builds up over time. Tamika focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier and more in control of day-to-day life.
She centers sessions on listening first and building trust. Tamika uses plain language to help people understand what’s happening and what might help.
Background and approach
She believes clients know their own stories and works to amplify individual strengths so change feels possible. Her work often addresses relationship concerns, self-esteem, grief, addictions, parenting strain, and anger. Tamika also supports people facing major life transitions, career stress, chronic health challenges, and caregiving burdens.
She pays attention to complicated backgrounds such as adoption and attachment issues when those come up. In session she draws from several well-known approaches, including attachment-based work that looks at relationship patterns, cognitive behavioral strategies for shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and mindfulness techniques to manage stress in the moment. Tamika aims to make tools practical and usable between sessions.
She holds LCSW and LSCSW credentials and offers care in English. People connect with her by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Therapy sessions are offered in several online formats to fit different needs.

How attachment work, CBT, and mindfulness fit online
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and how they show up in daily life. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns, try new responses, and reflect on how past attachments affect current relationships.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It translates well to video or phone sessions because the therapist and client can work through specific exercises and homework together between meetings.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple practices to calm the body and steady attention. Short guided exercises can be done during live chat or voice sessions and then practiced throughout the week to reduce stress and reactivity.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Tamika will work with each person to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and the issues at hand. That collaborative process can change as needs evolve over time.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face-to-face when visibility helps learning. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a session needs to be shorter. Live chat and text-based messaging fit quick check-ins, notes between sessions, or times when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life.
