Jody Ritter CTBF, LMHC

Life is full of ups and downs. Most People just want to feel better. I'm a licensed mental health counselor with over 20 years of experience working with adults. My goal is to help you or your loved ones navigate through your problems, live in the present, process feelings and alleviate grief and fear. Together we can explore the best way for you to face what can sometimes feel completely overwhelming, finding interventions that will work for you and help create more joy and peace in your life." Get better at feeling and in the process feel better". I take a holistic, experiential, personalized approach using psychotherapy modalities, mindfulness & cognitive therapy. I have experience treating depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, abandonment, grief & loss. My professional philosophies are built upon acceptance, respect & understanding and a strong belief that anything is approachable in counseling with kindness, compassion and empathy. I believe we can rise above life stressors. At times we may need a little help Getting better at feeling is mind, body and soul work. Sometimes talking is just not enough. Even when we diligently change our thought processes something seems to be missing. In my practice, we work at mending the shattered parts of our selves using psychotherapy with talk therapy, homework and mindfulness in an experiential way.
