Jodi Weslow is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years of clinical experience. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and career questions with a calm, practical approach. Her style is collaborative and supportive, focusing on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Jodi uses methods from client-centered, cognitive behavioral, and solution-focused therapy. She tailors sessions to each person’s goals and life stage, and she emphasizes concrete skills people can use outside sessions. Jodi pays attention to how emotions show up in the body and helps clients learn coping tools that feel doable day to day.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including parenting, grief, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, compassion fatigue, eating concerns, and family-origin issues. She also offers support around adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, communication problems, intellectual disability, and social anxiety and phobia. Jodi frames these topics in straightforward terms and focuses on practical ways to respond to them.

Sessions aim to help people feel more regulated, clear, and capable. Jodi creates a nonjudgmental space where clients can slow down and make sense of what they are feeling. Together, she and the client identify realistic steps and build skills that fit into everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Jodi draws from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding, and reflecting what matters most to the person so they feel heard and can explore their own solutions. Cognitive behavioral therapy examines patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful habits and ease symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

She also uses solution-focused ideas to keep sessions goal-oriented and action-based, looking for small, achievable steps to move forward. Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the process; the therapist and client decide together based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. This collaborative approach helps tailor sessions so they feel useful and manageable.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for consistent check-ins during transitions. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are scheduled and delivered. The focus remains on building skills, tracking progress, and adapting tools to everyday routines rather than promising a specific outcome.
