About Jeffrey
Jeffrey Haddock is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with 14 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addiction, relationship and family concerns, anger, self-esteem issues, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and life changes.
He uses practical therapy methods rather than labels. Sessions focus on clear, usable skills and on talking through what’s happening now. He blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive-behavioral tools and attachment-based thinking to help reduce reactive anger and manage ongoing frustration.
Jeffrey draws on client-centered and dialectical behavior approaches to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and mindful awareness. That can include learning to notice triggers, practicing short-term coping skills, and testing different ways to respond when tension builds. He also supports people coping with grief and trauma using strategies that acknowledge painful memories while working on day-to-day functioning.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. He emphasizes collaboration to set specific steps clients can try between meetings. The focus is on small, practical changes that lower the frequency and intensity of heated reactions and improve communication with people close to you.
Jeffrey’s background includes long-term work across settings with adults navigating complex emotional concerns. He keeps language straightforward and avoids jargon so people understand what will happen in sessions and what skills they can practice afterward.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-based action. Online sessions can help people learn to accept difficult feelings while choosing responses that match their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. That approach suits worries, anger that builds at work or home, and habits someone wants to change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first, adjust based on what helps, and build a practical plan with skills to practice between sessions. The aim is to match techniques to the client’s needs, goals, and preferences rather than sticking to one fixed method.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats he offers. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce the need to travel. They also let people practice skills in their usual settings and bring real examples from day-to-day life into the conversation.
