About Jodi

Jodi Cornelius is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with ten years of experience. She practices in Michigan and Florida and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, career challenges, and compassion fatigue.

She often sees people who spend most of their time caring for others and have lost sight of their own needs. Jodi helps clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or worn down by caregiving, work, or relationship demands. She also supports people dealing with intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, and life transitions.

Jodi uses straightforward, practical conversations to sort out what is getting in the way. She leans on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the client's perspective. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and Motivational Interviewing to clarify what clients want to change.

Sessions aim to build on strengths and to find realistic steps that fit day-to-day life. Jodi talks through concrete strategies for setting boundaries, managing anxiety, and improving communication. She also addresses codependency patterns and caregiver stress with attention to small, doable changes.

Reaching out does not require having everything solved first. Jodi encourages a first appointment as a chance to see how working together could help. International clients may be accepted; confirm session options before booking.

How sessions work

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's experience. In practice this means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's concerns, helping them name what matters and decide next steps. This approach is useful for people who want a respectful, person-focused conversation about relationships and caregiving roles.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together. Online CBT sessions often include clear tools and short exercises to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors between sessions. That can help with anxiety, low mood, and repetitive people-pleasing patterns.

Motivational Interviewing helps clarify what a person wants to change and why. It uses focused questions and reflective listening to strengthen motivation for practical steps, which can support setting boundaries or reducing codependent patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jodi will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress or challenges emerge.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available online options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use these formats to focus on skills, communication practice, and stepwise behavior changes without requiring travel.
