About Jodi
Jodi Pilcher Gordon is a BACP counsellor with six years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps adults who feel anxious, stuck or overwhelmed by life changes. Jodi focuses on stress, relationships, work and study concerns, and issues common in young adulthood such as feeling behind or uncertain about direction.
She listens closely to each person's situation and reflects back what she notices to help clients gain clarity. Sessions draw on a person-centred approach that treats the client as an individual with their own history and strengths. Jodi may also use elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and body-based (somatic) techniques when helpful.
Practical concerns often come up in her work - money, career choices, communication problems and coping after separation. She also supports people working through guilt, isolation, low self-esteem and questions about life purpose. Jodi is LGBTQ+ affirmative and includes that perspective in her practice.
Her style balances listening with straightforward reflection and practical exercises. That can include noticing bodily responses, trying small behavioural experiments, or looking at values and choices. Sessions aim to help people manage anxiety, make clearer decisions and take small steps forward.
For people in early adulthood, she pays attention to transitions such as leaving home, starting work or university, and changing relationships. Jodi accepts international clients and offers sessions to English speakers. To begin, clients use the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Jodi uses practical approaches in online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small steps aligned with those values. It is often useful for anxiety, uncertainty and making choices in life or work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and offers practical experiments to test unhelpful beliefs. It can help with low mood, stress and unhelpful thinking. Somatic techniques draw attention to the body and breathing to reduce physical tension and to ground people who feel overwhelmed.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. That choice is guided by the client’s goals, what they notice in sessions and what helps between appointments.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around shift work, study timetables or short breaks between commitments. They also allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and sessions that do not require being on camera if that helps someone engage. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets and body-based techniques to work remotely so learning can continue between sessions.
