Jodie Flagle

Jodie Flagle is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Indiana with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, parenting stress, relationship pain, grief, or the long shadow of trauma. Her style is warm and interactive, and she aims to make therapy feel respectful and down to earth.

Jodie focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions to regain steady footing. She blends Trauma-Focused Therapy with cognitive and person-centered methods to match each person’s needs. Sessions often include skill-building for emotion regulation, ways to shift unhelpful thinking, and paced work on painful memories when people are ready.

She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach coping tools for stress, anger, and attention challenges. Jodie also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as one of several options when trauma processing is appropriate and desired by the client.

The therapist works with adults facing a wide range of concerns, including addictions, intimacy issues, family-of-origin problems, caregiver strain, and major life changes. She avoids stigmatizing labels and seeks to build a collaborative plan with each person.

If someone wants practical strategies and steady support while addressing painful events or relationship wounds, Jodie offers a patient, strengths-focused approach. She encourages people to take therapy at a pace that feels manageable and to develop tools they can use every day.

How trauma-informed, online therapy can work for you

Trauma-Focused Therapy aims to help people process painful experiences in ways that reduce their hold on daily life. This approach moves at the person’s pace and focuses on safety, grounding, and gradual processing of traumatic memories when the client is ready.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking and build routines that reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used as an option for people who want targeted work on trauma memories. It involves structured steps to process distressing memories and integrate new, less distressing perspectives.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s concerns, goals, and comfort level. That planning can include trying skill-based work first, then moving to trauma-focused methods if and when it feels appropriate.

For practical matters, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing for shorter check-ins when needed. Some people find video sessions let them use visual tools and worksheets, while others prefer audio-only meetings for lower bandwidth or to keep sessions brief during a work break. Always check available formats so sessions fit your schedule and needs.
