Approaches that guide online work and practical benefits

Jodie's biography notes evidence-based therapeutic techniques as the basis for her work. Two common evidence-based approaches often used for the concerns she lists are cognitive-based methods and trauma-informed care. Cognitive-based methods focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying alternative ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and low mood; these methods are useful for stress, anxiety and depression. Trauma-informed care pays close attention to how past harm affects the body and mind and emphasises safety, pacing and building coping skills for people recovering from trauma and abuse.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jodie works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. She starts with what matters most to the client and adjusts the plan as progress is made or goals change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online working can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people access support from familiar surroundings and maintain continuity of care when schedules change. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in an online setting, helping clients practise new skills between sessions.
