I love walking alongside people as life can be difficult and no one should have to navigate challenges alone. If you're dealing with something that feels overwhelmingly daunting, I'm here to help you navigate through what might seem impossible. You may be seeking therapy as you feel lost in life on some level, unsure of how to find your way. With too much on your plate, life just feels like it’s too much. Maybe you're unmotivated to do anything in your free time or you're noticing that you often feel stressed, tired or unfulfilled. It's possible to feel better and live your life with less stress and more calm.

My therapy practice is dedicated to helping TEENS, COLLEGE AGE STUDENTS and YOUNG ADULTS through challenging times in their lives. This stage in life is such an important time in one’s development and it is easy to become overwhelmed, anxious, and depressed with all that life is throwing at you. I have worked with teens and young adults for over twenty years, and now as a trauma therapist I find there is a greater need than ever to give teens and young adults the coping skills needed to deal with the challenges and stressors they are facing on a daily basis. Some of my brightest young clients feel they are 'not good enough.'

Hi I'm Jodi! I'm so glad you're here! I'm an Arizona native with over 20 years of professional experience working with families and kids kindergarten-college. My career path has led me through schools, non-profits and beyond. Still, everything I cherish about this work comes from what I learned working at sleep-away camp... 1. Making messes teaches us how to clean up. 2. Discomfort is necessary for growth. 3. Trusting ourselves teaches us limits and shows us what we are capable of. 4. We don't get anywhere without advocating for ourselves. 5. Nothing is more delicious than grilled cheese and tomato soup.

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself and loved ones leaving you in a cycle of pain? Or maybe it's difficult to be present, because you find your thoughts and perceptions rooted in your past. Clients I've worked with often show tremendous creativity in coping with overwhelming life experiences, but often these creative coping mechanisms play a role in their continued suffering. I've helped people like you understand & modify outdated methods of coping so that life can become fulfilling & meaningful instead of a painful struggle. You deserve support as you improve communication, set boundaries, and process past or current pain.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
