Background and approach

Sessions emphasize small, doable changes rather than long talks about the past. Jodi has three years of experience as an LCSW working with a wide range of concerns. Her background includes work with trauma and post-traumatic stress, as well as issues such as eating problems, anger, and relationship difficulties.

She also has experience related to adoption and foster care, blended family issues, and veteran-related concerns as noted in her background. In sessions she helps people develop coping skills for life transitions, career stress, and mood swings related to bipolar disorder or seasonal shifts.

She works with clients who struggle with social anxiety, phobias, or panic attacks and supports efforts to increase self-love and reduce self-harm behaviors. Jodi practices from Idaho and conducts therapy in English. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules.

How Jodi Uses Evidence-Based Methods Online

Jodi draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, panic symptoms, and depression because it targets specific patterns that keep problems going.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment calm. Mindfulness can help with stress, rumination, and emotional regulation after trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jodi will talk with clients about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. The plan can change as progress is made and new needs appear, with the client guiding what feels most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited travel options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, step-by-step skill practice, or when a shorter contact fits a hectic day.
