EXPERIENCED. ACCESSIBLE. EVENINGS & WEEKENDS. With 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida and Colorado, I have devoted my career to helping individuals strengthen their mental and emotional well-being. My work has spanned a wide range of clients and life circumstances—including WWII Veterans, paralyzed Veterans, caregivers, end-of-life support, members of the Queer community, and individuals navigating depression, anxiety, and both childhood and adult cancers. My approach is client-centered and tailored to each person’s unique story. I believe deeply in the mind–body connection and integrate practices such as meditation, exercise, nutrition, and restorative sleep into therapy. Together, we work toward helping you rise into your strongest, most authentic self. As a secular and liberal therapist, I celebrate diversity and honor individuality. I affirm that love is love, and I provide a safe, supportive environment for clients of all sexual orientations and gender identities. I also have experience working with clients in alternative relationship structures (swinging, polyamory), as well as couples in interracial relationships and blended families. I draw from evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I am committed to ongoing professional development, including training in psychedelic therapy and integration through the Integrated Psychiatry Institute. My role is to guide clients through challenges, equip them with coping strategies, and support them in creating meaningful, sustainable change. If you are seeking an experienced, compassionate therapist who will meet you where you are, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can build a path of healing, growth, and self-discovery.

I’m Bill Hodson, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) with more than 30 years of experience in behavioral health. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across many levels of care — including inpatient, residential, medical detox, day treatment, and outpatient settings. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how trauma, PTSD, and addiction impact people’s lives, and why individualized, compassionate treatment is so important. I specialize in helping adults heal from trauma and co-occurring addiction, with a particular focus on first responders, veterans, and individuals in high-stress professions. These clients face unique challenges, and I provide a safe, confidential space where they can process their experiences without judgment. I also work with adults from all walks of life who want to overcome trauma, anxiety, or patterns of substance use. In my practice, I use EMDR therapy to help clients reprocess painful memories, reduce triggers, and restore emotional balance. I am also certified in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), a cutting-edge approach for trauma, depression, and treatment-resistant conditions. By combining EMDR, KAP, and trauma-informed counseling, I create individualized treatment plans that meet clients where they are and help them move forward at a pace that feels safe. My clients often describe me as compassionate, collaborative, and approachable. Many find that over time, they experience relief from symptoms, improved relationships, and a renewed sense of resilience and hope. My goal is to help every client move from surviving to truly thriving.

I’m a first-generation Latina therapist, and that lived experience gives me a unique lens in how I show up for the people I work with. I understand the mix of cultural expectations, generational patterns, and just trying to get through everyday life. Many of my clients come in carrying anxiety, self-doubt, depression, or trauma, but also the very real, everyday stuff: relationship stress, distrust in others, feeling not good enough, not wanted, not seen. In our work together, I help you unpack those feelings and begin to challenge the negative narratives that may be shaping how you see yourself. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you, it’s about helping you understand where those patterns come from and supporting you in rewriting the story in a way that feels more honest and empowering. I believe healing starts from within. Empowerment isn’t just about what we can do, it’s about remembering who we already are. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, find your voice, and build a life that feels more grounded, more intentional, and more yours.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and reside in Texas, I am also licensed in Colorado, Florida, Utah, South Carolina, and Vermont. I specialize in helping you identify and overcome issues that hinder your day-to-day enjoyment of life and/or interfere with progress towards goals you have set. In over thirty years of private practice counseling I have learned to meet clients’ needs not only with continued education and research but also through a multitude of life experiences. I enjoy working with a diverse range of clients and have found that humor when utilized in an appropriate way and time can be very beneficial. I believe trust is a fundamental element in any relationship. This trust has to be developed and nurtured to remain genuine. Through trust other aspects important to the relationship can prosper such as comfort in being open, sincerity, and a willingness to change. I find that humor when utilized in an appropriate way and time can be very beneficial. I am a life-long Texan, however, I have traveled extensively and embraced many different cultures and location specific issues. Through all of life’s changes I have learned that, even with the best of plans, things still do not always work out the way we would like. I have experienced many of the same issues as my clients so can relate to them on a personal basis. This has also allowed me to acquire an understanding of what clients may be going through even if I have not experienced the exact situation. Through any adversity there is no reason to feel alone.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by state rather than a city?

Why filter by state rather than a city? When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across the entire state. If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near your address.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Addiction?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Addiction, is filtering therapists in Colorado that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
