About Jodie
Jodie Flagle offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship strain. She is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Indiana with ten years of clinical experience.
Background and approach
Jodie focuses on helping people find clearer direction and steadier coping when life feels chaotic. Her sessions are warm and interactive.
She listens closely, then helps clients set small, practical goals that fit their lives. Conversations may cover mood shifts, parenting challenges, substance concerns, grief, or the aftereffects of trauma and abuse.
Jodie uses a blend of approaches tailored to each person. She draws on client-centered work to build trust, and cognitive behavioral techniques to change thinking and behaviors that keep problems going.
Mindfulness practices and skills from dialectical behavior therapy are offered for emotional regulation and stress management. Over the years she has supported people through major life changes, family conflict, and struggles with self-esteem or intimacy.
Her background includes experience with adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, and complex family-of-origin concerns. She also addresses ADHD-related challenges and compassion fatigue.
Therapy with Jodie typically focuses on practical steps and clear communication. She encourages clients to notice progress between sessions and to try tools that help with daily routines, relationships, and mood.
The aim is steadier functioning and more confidence managing life’s ups and downs.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes understanding the person’s perspective and building a respectful, accepting relationship. In practice this looks like open conversation where the therapist reflects concerns and helps clients clarify goals and values.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits and testing small changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing everyday stress through homework and concrete skill practice.
Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, offers specific skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication. Clients learn short-term strategies for emotion regulation and longer-term routines to decrease reactivity.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and work together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. This collaborative process may mix approaches and adjust over time based on what helps most.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets, phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, brief coaching moments, or deeper weekly sessions.
