About Jodi

Jodi Pilcher Gordon works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, career concerns and coping with life changes. She uses a person-centred approach and draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and somatic ideas in sessions. Jodi is a BACP member and has six years' experience in counselling.

Jodi listens closely to what is happening for each person. She reflects back patterns and responses so clients can see things more clearly. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage anxiety, tackle work and study pressures, and improve communication in relationships.

Her practice supports people facing depression, low self-esteem, midlife questions and issues around identity, including LGBT concerns. She also addresses commitment issues, separation and divorce, family problems, guilt and loneliness. Jodi works with people dealing with money worries, workplace strain and the challenges of young adulthood.

In sessions she uses person-centred methods alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques. She may include body-based methods influenced by somatic work to help with grounding and bodily awareness. Creative approaches and transactional analysis ideas can also appear where they suit the client.

Appointments aim to help people make small, manageable changes and to clarify what matters to them. Jodi describes her practice as LGBTQ+ affirmative and will work with each person as an individual. To begin, clients follow the site's matching process and arrange a first session.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Jodi commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on values and actions someone can take despite difficult thoughts or emotions, often using exercises to notice what matters. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and introduces practical strategies to reduce distress and build coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and she works collaboratively to decide what fits best. Clients and therapist review what is helpful and adapt methods based on goals, preferences and how someone responds to the work.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or avoiding camera use when that helps someone engage. Registered or accredited professionals can still use the same ACT and CBT exercises online, including breathing or grounding practices drawn from somatic ideas, and adapt worksheets and activities for remote sessions.
