About Jade

Jade Dodde is an LMSW who focuses on helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges.

Background and approach

She brings eight years of clinical experience in Michigan and works with people facing issues such as bipolar disorder, ADHD, addiction concerns, family and relationship stress, grief, trauma and abuse, and difficulties with self-esteem or intimacy. Her practice emphasizes practical skills for emotional regulation alongside exploration of personal history and values.

Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, centering the client as the expert in their own life while offering structured tools and interventions. Jade draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thought and behavior, and integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, client-centered principles, and DBT-informed strategies when appropriate.

She also uses trauma-focused methods such as EMDR training to help process intense experiences in a paced manner. Jade aims to create measurable, realistic goals with clients and to teach coping skills that promote steadiness and meaning.

People who want a warm, pragmatic therapist who balances empathy with concrete strategies may find her style a good match.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Jade often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; this approach is practical for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which emphasizes values-based action and learning to live with difficult emotions rather than trying to eliminate them, making it useful for chronic worry and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively to tailor methods to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration means trying structured CBT exercises, practicing acceptance and values-guided choices, or drawing on attachment-focused perspectives when relationship patterns are central to the work.

Online therapy with Jade is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These remote formats allow clients to engage from home or other convenient locations, fit sessions around work or family commitments, and continue consistent therapeutic work even when schedules or travel make in-person visits difficult.
