Jodie Flagle, LMFT

Jodie Flagle is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Indiana with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or the fallout from trauma. Jodie also helps people dealing with parenting strains, relationship pain, addiction concerns, and life transitions.

Her approach is warm and interactive. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps people can use between meetings. She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats each person with respect and sensitivity.

Jodie blends several therapeutic methods to fit each person's needs. She uses client-centered listening to understand what matters most to the person. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build different habits. She also works with mindfulness and elements of dialectical behavior strategies to manage strong emotions.

For people with a history of trauma, she includes targeted trauma work alongside coping tools for daily life. Her aim is to help people regain a sense of balance, safety, and direction after difficult experiences. Jodie supports clients in strengthening communication, addressing family-of-origin issues, and improving self-esteem.

She encourages anyone considering therapy to take a small step forward. The first sessions focus on practical concerns and creating a clear plan. From there, she adjusts the work as needs change and progress emerges.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy starts with listening closely to what matters most to the person. It focuses on a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship and on goals the person sets. This approach helps when someone needs clearer direction or wants to talk through personal values and choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It uses exercises and experiments to test unhelpful thoughts and build new habits, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and relationship tension. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing overwhelming emotions and improving communication, which is useful for high emotional reactivity or chronic stress.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that fit the situation, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients help shape which tools are used and when to shift focus.

Confirm current session format options before booking, as this profile does not list specific formats. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people choose sessions that match how they prefer to meet, whether they need more in-depth emotion work or focused skill practice.
