How Jodi Uses Therapy Methods Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs. It helps people feel heard and guides goals based on what matters to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jodi collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts tools and pacing as needs change so therapy stays useful and realistic.
