Remote therapy tailored to thought, trauma, and solutions
Jodi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and then work with the relationships among their thoughts, emotions, and actions. In accessible terms she breaks down patterns into manageable steps, supports the development of new coping strategies, and sets concrete, short-term goals that align with a person’s priorities.
Solution-Focused Therapy guides sessions toward practical, achievable changes and relies on the person’s own strengths to identify what works. Trauma-Focused Therapy is applied when past events are relevant, with attention to processing experiences and reducing the ways those experiences influence current functioning. Together these approaches offer both skill-building and focused problem solving.
Jodi conducts remote sessions by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. People who prefer a structured, collaborative process that mixes skills practice and solution-oriented planning are likely to find this combination of approaches a fit.
