    About Jodi

    Jodi Cornelius is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with ten years of experience helping adults through stressful and uncertain times. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth therapy that aims to slow life down and find clearer ways forward. People often come to her for anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, and burnout.

    Jodi pays special attention to people who spend much of their time caring for others and may have lost sight of their own needs. She helps clients notice what is getting in the way, build on strengths, and try manageable changes. Sessions emphasize honest conversation, steady support, and realistic steps rather than quick fixes.

    Her work draws on Motivational Interviewing to explore readiness for change and on Client-Centered approaches that follow each person's priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques when helpful to address thought patterns and behavior that fuel anxiety and depression.

    Jodi aims to make therapy feel calm and approachable. She encourages people to bring the real, everyday problems they face, and works with them to set goals that fit their life. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental while staying focused on what will help most.

    Taking the first step can feel hard, and Jodi reminds people they do not need to have everything figured out before starting. Often a single conversation can lead to clearer next steps and renewed hope.

  2. How Jodi’s approaches translate to online therapy

    Motivational Interviewing is a conversational style that helps people weigh their options and find reasons to move toward change. It suits goals like tackling burnout, building self-care, or making lifestyle shifts. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following each person's priorities so sessions reflect what matters most to the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete strategies to reduce anxiety and depressive patterns.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jodi will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That conversation usually happens in early sessions and can be revisited as needs change so the plan stays relevant and practical.

    The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find therapy online helpful because it can fit into busy schedules, make shorter check-ins easier, and remove travel time. Online sessions can also support continuity of care when life changes or schedules are tight. Licensed professionals, including Jodi, aim to make virtual work feel focused and useful while helping people put new habits into practice in their everyday lives.
