    About Jeffrey

    Jeffrey Haddock is a licensed master social worker (LMSW) based in Michigan who centers his work on helping people make meaningful changes. He brings 14 years of experience and uses practical talk-based methods to help clients cope with stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions.

    He draws from Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what matters to them and find the energy to change. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based ideas when they fit a person's goals. Sessions focus on real problems and clear next steps rather than jargon.

    Jeffrey has worked with people facing trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, mood difficulties like depression and bipolar patterns, and issues around relationships, parenting, and identity. He tailors conversations and plans to a person’s situation and priorities. His approach emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and a calm, steady presence.

    In sessions he mixes short-term strategies and longer-term reflection. That can include practical behavior changes, working through painful memories, and building skills for managing anger or improving self-esteem. He coaches people toward small changes that add up over time.

    Jeffrey asks people to describe what they hope to change and then collaborates on a realistic plan. He encourages gentle progress and checks in about what’s working. If you’re unsure where to begin, he helps narrow the focus and set achievable first steps.

  1. How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

    Motivational Interviewing helps people explore what matters to them and to find their own reasons to change. Online sessions using this approach focus on clear goals, short reflections, and practical next steps that a person can try between meetings.

    Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and values, then choosing actions that match what matters. In remote sessions ACT techniques often include simple exercises for noticing thoughts, practicing acceptance, and setting value-based goals that fit daily life.

    Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationships shape expectations and reactions. In online conversations this can mean talking through relationship patterns, learning new ways to connect, and practicing different responses to reduce reactivity.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying a short plan and adjusting it over time so it matches what actually helps.

    The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. If you need to keep meetings brief or prefer not to be on camera sometimes, discuss options when booking. The therapist’s session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm which online options are currently offered before scheduling. Online therapy can make ongoing support more manageable while focusing on concrete steps and problem-solving.
