About Jodi
Jodi Cornelius is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Michigan with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, career challenges, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Jodi focuses on practical support for people who feel overwhelmed by caring for others or by life transitions.
She helps people untangle what is causing strain and identifies small steps that make daily life more manageable. Conversations are plain and direct, with attention on skills you can use right away. She draws on client-centered listening alongside techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing to support change.
Jodi often works with clients who feel stuck after big life shifts, such as new jobs, moving, or changes in family roles. She also supports people dealing with intimacy issues, social anxiety, guilt or shame, and the stress of caregiving. Her practice includes focus on blended family issues, codependency, and relationship communication problems.
Sessions aim to build on existing strengths and to set achievable goals for work, relationships, and personal wellbeing. Jodi pays attention to practical barriers like overwhelm and impulsivity and helps clients plan around them. She welcomes conversations about life purpose, identity, and struggles common in early adulthood.
Starting therapy does not require a clear diagnosis or a finished plan. Jodi encourages a straightforward first step: a brief questionnaire and a scheduled session to see how the approach fits your needs.
How Jodi’s approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so you feel understood and can name what matters most. It helps when someone needs space to talk through overwhelm, relationship questions, or identity concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and manage attention and impulsivity. Motivational Interviewing helps clarify personal goals and supports taking small, sustainable steps toward change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jodi treats the choice of methods as a collaborative process. She will discuss goals and preferences with each client and adjust the mix of listening, skill-building, and goal-focused coaching to fit what you need at the time.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around school, a job, or caregiving. They can reduce commuting time, allow shorter check-ins, or make it simpler to keep appointments during busy weeks. Working this way still centers on clear steps, homework when useful, and practical strategies drawn from CBT and motivational interviewing to help you handle stress, relationships, and life transitions.
