About Jodi
Jodi Walker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who brings eight years of clinical experience to her practice in Utah. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for people dealing with anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, bipolar symptoms, and parenting concerns. Jodi aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and supported.
She uses straightforward talk therapy and skill-building to help people manage strong emotions and difficult situations.
Background and approach
That can include learning ways to cope with stress, reduce anxious thoughts, or handle mood shifts. For people recovering from trauma or addiction, she focuses on steady progress and concrete strategies to stay safe and build stability. Jodi draws on several approaches depending on the need.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) offers tools to clarify values and take committed action. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship patterns and emotional connection.
Sessions often include exercises, problem-solving, and chance to talk through painful experiences. Jodi aims to make sessions feel collaborative so each person can set realistic goals and try small changes between meetings. Her background includes work across mood disorders, grief, intimacy concerns, body image, parenting stress, ADHD, and codependency.
She emphasizes practical steps and steady skill-building rather than quick fixes. People looking for clear, skills-focused support often find this approach helpful.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. It uses exercises to accept difficult thoughts while building actions that match personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. It’s practical and often goal oriented. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and communication, which can be useful for people struggling with intimacy or communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences. That means trying approaches, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video sessions allow real-time conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day when video is not feasible. Live chat or messaging works well for brief check-ins, written exercises, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options aim to help people access consistent support while fitting therapy into daily life.
