Beginning therapy can feel hard, and Jodi aims to make the first steps simple and clear. She invites people to share their story at their own speed and helps them find practical ways to move forward.

How Jodi’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered work focuses on understanding your priorities and strengths. In practice this means the therapist listens carefully, reflects what she hears, and helps you set the agenda for sessions. It is useful for people who want a collaborative, respectful space to make sense of difficult feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often involves short exercises and practical homework to try between meetings, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related symptoms.

Mindfulness-based tools teach gentle ways to notice thoughts and body sensations without getting swept away. These practices can reduce reactivity and improve calm during intense moments, and they pair well with CBT strategies.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jodi will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they set aims and adjust techniques as progress or life changes.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit your schedule and communication needs.
