People meet with Jodi to work through things like codependency, blended family challenges, adoption and foster care questions, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and parenthood concerns.

Evidence-based methods and online access

Jodi uses practical, evidence-based techniques that help people change patterns and manage strong emotions. One common approach focuses on teaching coping skills for anxiety and stress such as breathing, grounding, and step-by-step exposure to feared situations; these strategies aim to reduce immediate distress and build confidence. Another approach centers on trauma-aware methods that help people process painful memories and learn safer ways to respond to triggers, which can improve day-to-day functioning and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jodi collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, background, and values. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques based on what helps most, so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions provide a simpler option when video isn’t possible, and live chat or text-based messaging lets people share brief updates or get support between sessions. These formats make it easier to use consistent strategies and practice new skills in real life without long commutes.
