Jodie Flagle, LMFT

Jodie Flagle is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Indiana with 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, or the fallout of trauma and loss. Jodie aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can begin to regain balance and direction.

Her work often addresses parenting challenges, substance use, ADHD, grief, intimacy struggles, anger, and coping with big life changes. She also supports people dealing with family of origin issues, abandonment, blended family concerns, and communication or commitment problems. Jodie focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions to build momentum.

Jodie’s style is warm, interactive, and compassionate. She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats each person as an individual. In sessions she listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients set clear goals that feel doable.

Her approach draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral methods, dialectical behavior techniques, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, and mindfulness practices. Those tools are mixed to suit the person’s needs rather than applied the same way for everyone.

If someone is ready to look for change, Jodie focuses on small, steady steps toward increased resilience and self-understanding. The process is collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Jodie uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person’s experience and goals. This approach centers the person’s voice, helps clarify values, and guides goal-setting that fits everyday life.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behavior changes. CBT is practical and often includes exercises to try between sessions to track progress.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills are another tool she may use for emotion regulation and improved communication. These skills teach concrete techniques for managing intense feelings and reducing conflict.

Deciding on an approach is a collaborative process. Jodie will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose methods that match the person’s needs and adjust the plan over time.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find it helpful to use sessions to practice skills in real life and return with observations for the next meeting.
