About Jodie
Jodie uses a mix of practical methods to match each person's needs. She listens closely and helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on real-life skills people can try between meetings, such as noticing thinking patterns, building emotional regulation, and managing everyday stressors.
Her background includes focused work with trauma, loss, and relationship pain. That experience informs how she supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, blended family issues, parenting stress, and caregiver strain. She also works with concerns such as ADHD, depression, anxiety, substance use, and anger challenges.
In sessions she uses client-centered conversation alongside cognitive and behavioral techniques. Mindfulness-based tools and skills from dialectical behavior approaches may be added when useful. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing is also part of her practice for processing traumatic memories.
Jodie aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through their priorities and goals. She focuses on helping clients build routines and thinking habits that support daily life. If someone is ready to take a next step, she guides them toward clearer choices and more reliable coping.

How Jodie’s approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and respect. It helps people feel heard and decide what matters most to them, which can make remote conversations feel useful and focused.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online sessions can include short exercises to notice thinking patterns and try new habits between meetings, which helps with anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Those skills transfer well to remote sessions because they can be practiced and reviewed during calls and between appointments.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to pick methods that fit a person's goals, pace, and daily routine. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting plans together.
Confirm current session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce time spent traveling to appointments. Talk with the therapist about what scheduling or session rhythm would work best for everyday life.
