About Judi

Judi Fischer is an Ohio LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 23 years of experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, life changes, compassion fatigue, and addictions. Her work also covers parenting, career challenges, self-esteem, anger, and intimacy-related issues.

Judi uses practical, evidence-informed methods. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, client-centered conversation, and skills from dialectical behavior approaches when those fit a person’s needs.

Clients can expect clear goals and concrete steps. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that cause problems and testing different ways of responding. Judi listens to what matters and helps people set achievable short-term tasks between meetings.

Her past roles include school teacher, bereavement specialist, small business owner, ballroom dance instructor, and mental health therapist. Those experiences inform a practical style that stresses problem solving and daily coping skills.

Judi has worked a long time with grief, blended family issues, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, family of origin concerns, and aging or geriatric issues. She also addresses forgiveness, guilt, shame, and feelings of emptiness when those affect daily life.

How CBT, ACT and attachment work in online sessions

Judi commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, then practice specific behavior changes and new ways of thinking. CBT is practical work aimed at small, testable changes that can affect daily functioning.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when difficult feelings are present. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how past relationship patterns affect current reactions and closeness with others.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Judi will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying CBT exercises for a few weeks, then adding skills from DBT or using attachment-focused conversation where helpful.

The therapist’s biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow focused skill practice between meetings. It also makes it simpler to check in during a break from work or follow up without rearranging a full day.
