About Jodie
Jodie Spradlin is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 10 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, and relationship concerns. Sessions also address trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and life changes.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She uses several methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and elements of the Gottman Method. Jodie helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, try new responses, and practice skills between meetings.
In sessions she focuses on clear goals and steps. Conversations aim to identify patterns that keep problems going and to test small changes. Work may include behavioral experiments, thought records, values clarification, and learning emotional regulation skills.
Jodie pays attention to how relationships, past losses, and attachment issues affect daily life. She also addresses concerns related to LGBT identity, intimacy, infidelity, and nontraditional sexual practices when they come up. Practical problem solving around money, work changes, or family conflict is part of the work.
People who want structured, skills-based help tend to do well with her style. She asks about what matters most, the barriers in the way, and what small steps feel doable. To begin, readers are invited to use the site matching process and schedule a first session.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Jodie often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what works. ACT helps clarify values and build actions that fit those values while accepting difficult feelings that come up.She treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. Clients and she review goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what feels practical and helpful. That collaborative testing helps decide whether CBT, ACT, DBT skills, or other methods will guide the work.
Confirm current session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific delivery options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, avoid travel time, and keep check-ins brief when needed. They also let people use written exercises or screen-sharing tools during a meeting to review thought records and practice skills. The focus is on fitting sessions into everyday life and on applying clear techniques between meetings rather than promising any specific service model.
