About Codi

Codi Kyle is a licensed marriage and family therapist who draws on 15 years of clinical experience to help clients move past stress, anxiety, addictive behaviors, self-esteem struggles, career concerns, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

She blends practical, goal-oriented strategies with a client-centered stance so sessions are both focused and responsive to each person’s priorities. Codi’s background includes work in outpatient settings as well as substance abuse and inpatient mental health treatment, which informs a flexible approach to varied challenges.

Her training includes a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Trevecca Nazarene University completed in 2009, and she maintains Tennessee licensure as LMFT (TN LMFT 954).

Having transitioned into therapy from a corporate human resources career, she brings attention to real-world stressors like money and career pressures alongside deeper relational themes such as attachment, abandonment, and communication difficulties. Codi also supports people coping with chronic pain or illness, caregiver stress, midlife transitions, and issues tied to guilt, shame, and forgiveness.

Sessions emphasize collaboration, clear goals, and practical tools that clients can apply between meetings.

Practical Approaches for Online Healing

Her work often employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and stress and to support better coping with addictive urges. Client-Centered Therapy is another cornerstone of her practice and emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients guide the focus and pace of their work.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and happens together with the therapist. She will collaborate with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, and may combine elements from different approaches to best support progress.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access therapy from home or work and allow consistent contact during times of transition, while still centering practical skills, goal-setting, and follow-through between sessions.
