Jodi Morley , LPC

Jodi Morley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who welcomes people who have taken the important step of seeking mental health support. She earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology in 2006 from The University of Texas-Pan American, which is now The University of Texas-RGV, and has worked across a range of settings and populations.

Her professional background includes supporting elderly individuals in nursing homes as they prepared for the later stages of life, and working with children as young as three through to adults. She has direct experience with issues such as self-injury and thoughts of suicide and brings an understanding informed by that experience to the therapeutic relationship. Jodi focuses on working with people experiencing depression and anxiety while remaining open to addressing whatever concerns emerge during therapy.

Central to her practice is building a trusting, caring therapeutic relationship, viewed as the foundation for meaningful work together. She emphasizes developing practical skills and coping strategies that clients can use throughout their lives. Jodi aims to help clients move toward the life they want by addressing current challenges and strengthening long-term resilience.

Evidence-Based Approaches Offered Remotely

Jodi uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and problem-solving. One approach emphasizes skills-based interventions to teach coping strategies for managing stress, anxiety, and mood challenges - these techniques offer concrete tools clients can apply between sessions. Another approach is trauma-informed care, which centers on understanding how past trauma and abuse can affect current functioning and focuses on building safety and gradual processing at a pace the client can manage. Both approaches draw on research-supported methods to address symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jodi works collaboratively with each person to determine what aligns with their needs, goals, and preferences. She partners with clients to adjust strategies over time so the plan fits their life and progress.

Online therapy with Jodi is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home, while still engaging in structured, evidence-based work with a licensed professional.
