About Jodi

Jodi Erion is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with eight years of experience as a mental health therapist and a longer history in the field. She has practiced in both Oregon and Tennessee and holds licensure in those states. Jodi aims to meet people respectfully and with compassion as they work through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction concerns, and other difficult life moments.

She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, narrative therapy, and client-centered work. In sessions Jodi focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. She also adapts plans to a person’s values, and will include faith-based perspectives if that fits the client.

Jodi has experience supporting people after trauma and emotional abuse, and she lists adoption and foster care among her areas of focus. She also addresses issues like grief, parenting concerns, bipolar mood struggles, ADHD, and caregiving stress. Her background includes both clinical therapy roles and broader work in mental health services.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Jodi works with each person to set clear goals and to practice skills between sessions. She emphasizes small, concrete changes that add up to better coping and clearer decision making.

Prospective clients who want to get started are asked to use the platform’s Start Therapy flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule appointments according to the therapist’s availability.

How Jodi’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's experience and priorities, helping people set goals and guide the conversation around what matters most. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to be heard and to sort out next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful habits; it suits problems like anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that can reduce intense reactions and improve relationships.

Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they will try methods that match those needs and adjust over time based on what works.

For practical matters, confirm the current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed on the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use techniques learned in therapy right where they live, then discuss how those experiments went at the next meeting. Licensed professionals help tailor pacing and tools so sessions fit into everyday life without demanding major schedule changes.
