About me

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been practicing for almost 6 years. I have experience working with young adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, self esteem, eating disorders, family issues, relationship issues, and trauma. I utilize specific interventions in my practice such as CBT, TF-CBT, traditional talk therapy, motivational interviewing and psychodynamic theory. I love to help individuals feel empowered and in control of their mental, physical, and emotional health.

I approach each session with an open mind and strive to make individuals feel as comfortable as possible. Every person deserves a safe place to share thoughts and feelings in a non-judgmental environment. I want to be that support in someone's life and help them to feel confident, strong, important, and worthy. Its not easy asking for help and feeling vulnerable, but its worth it, and you're worth it.

I cannot wait to meet you lovely individuals!

Joden is so understanding and sweet and easy to talk to. I love how she always circles back to the goals we set and how the challenges me to change my perspective for the better

Joden is unlike any therapist I've worked with before. She doesn't just recommend calming "tricks" as a band aid for your situation. She takes the time to learn your intricacies and narrows in on the root cause of your problems. I've learned more about myself in the 3 sessions I've had with her than with the years of therapy prior. I highly recommend Joden for anyone who's looking to learn more about their own behaviors, what drives them, and how to manage them.

The amount of love and support I receive from Joden is unreal. I have opened up in ways I never thought possible and I am truly grateful for her every day.

Joden has been very supportive and patient with me. I like how she encouraged me to do a video session because my previous therapist on here didn’t. I didn’t realize how much a video session would help talk through my worries.
