About Jodi
Jodi Schwartz is a licensed independent social worker - LICSW and LISW-CP - with 20 years of experience in clinical and medical settings. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, grief, and life changes. Her work also covers career questions, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and issues related to identity and LGBT concerns.
Jodi draws on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered and solution-focused methods. She uses short, practical steps to notice unhelpful thoughts and change routine responses. Sessions often include goal setting, skill practice, and checking what works between meetings.
Her background includes long-term work in medical environments and community mental health clinics. That experience informs practical help for people juggling health care, benefits, and basic needs like housing or food support. She can assist with finding community resources when those needs affect mental health.
In sessions Jodi favors interactive, conversational work. She listens, asks focused questions, and suggests small experiments clients can try. Progress is tracked in clear, concrete ways so people can see which strategies help with mood, sleep, concentration, or daily tasks.
She schedules within weekday mornings and early afternoons in South Carolina. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the See online therapy options button.
How CBT and solution-focused work in online sessions
Jodi commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, test them, and try new behavioral responses. CBT sessions often involve setting specific, measurable goals and practicing skills between meetings to reduce anxiety, improve mood, or manage ADHD-related challenges.She also uses client-centered methods that keep the conversation focused on the persons own priorities and experience. Solution-Focused Therapy is used for brief, goal-oriented work that identifies small, actionable steps toward a concrete change, such as improving sleep, communication, or daily routines.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jodi will collaborate with clients to choose methods based on goals, current challenges, and what feels most helpful. That means assessing progress and adjusting techniques over time rather than following one fixed plan.

Therapists can also adapt exercises so people can practice skills between sessions and track what helps in everyday life.
