About Jodi

Jodi Weslow is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting challenges, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She works with clients to reduce emotional overwhelm and manage life transitions by combining practical coping strategies with attention to how emotions and the nervous system interact. Her approach is collaborative and strengths-based, adapting techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapy and client-centered care to meet each person's goals and stage of life.

She emphasizes a calm, nonjudgmental environment where clients can increase self-awareness, learn realistic skills for daily use, and develop more effective ways to cope with compassion fatigue, anger, career pressures, eating concerns, and social anxiety. In sessions she blends solution-focused methods with skill-building exercises to foster regulation, clarity, and confidence.

Based in Virginia, she offers a supportive space to explore family of origin issues, adoption and foster care dynamics, caregiver stress, communication problems, and intellectual disability considerations while tailoring treatment to individual needs.

Approaches that guide online care



Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, empathetic space where the client’s own goals and values guide the work; this approach helps people build self-awareness and find personally meaningful solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, offering concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical, forward-looking strategies and small achievable steps to help clients make progress on specific concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then adapts techniques from these methods to find the best fit. Clients and the therapist check in over time to refine the plan and focus on what is most helpful.

Online therapy with this practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and varying comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations while allowing for consistent, ongoing work on skills, coping, and problem-solving.
