About Jodi
Jodi Erion is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, with eight years working directly as a mental health therapist and a longer history in the field. She practices in Tennessee and focuses on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, relationship problems, and anger.
Her background includes work with addiction and survivors of trauma and emotional abuse. She also lists concerns like grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, career questions, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with life changes. Jodi names adoption and foster care, aging and caregiver stress, body image, and forgiveness among other focus areas.
Jodi blends several practical methods rather than relying on a single technique. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness to help manage strong emotions and improve moment-to-moment coping.
Her style is client-centered and narrative-informed, which means she aims to hear each person’s story and work from there. She mentioned solution-focused ideas and that faith-based principles can be included if a client wants that in sessions.
Jodi noted that chat and phone sessions work best for her schedule as a mother with a toddler. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats when they book and follow the platform steps to schedule an initial meeting.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jodi uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in clear, practical ways. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts that fuel anger or anxiety and testing them against real-life evidence. DBT adds concrete skills for handling strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication, which helps when frustration builds in relationships.She also works from a client-centered and narrative perspective, listening to how a person describes their problems and helping reframe stories that keep them stuck. Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative; the therapist and client decide together what feels most useful based on goals and daily life demands.
Her profile notes chat and phone sessions suit her current schedule, but clients should confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. The therapist will discuss practical options and tailor session length and focus so therapy can fit into everyday routines.
