She earned her Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville in 2009 after transitioning from a career in corporate Human Resources.

This approach guides sessions toward practical steps and measurable progress while honoring each person's values and priorities. Codi has worked in a range of treatment settings, including outpatient programs, substance abuse services, and inpatient mental health care, where she developed skills in addressing stress, anxiety, addictions, self-esteem concerns, career issues, and coping with major life changes.

Known for an empathetic and collaborative style, she combines targeted interventions with a broad toolkit of therapeutic techniques to support lasting change. Codi aims to help clients identify clear goals, build coping strategies, and move forward with greater confidence and resilience. Her license is TN LMFT 954.

Approaches for Online Therapeutic Work

Codi uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive, empathetic space where the client's experience and goals lead the work. This approach helps people build self-awareness, strengthen decision-making, and address issues like low self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

She also employs solution-focused methods that concentrate on practical steps and short-term goals. Solution-focused work is useful for clients seeking clear, goal-oriented strategies for stress, anxiety, addictions, or career challenges and for those who want tangible progress over a limited number of sessions.

When appropriate, Codi integrates cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns that contribute to anxiety, impulsivity, or difficulties coping with change. Together these approaches offer a flexible framework tailored to each person's needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Codi collaborates with clients to determine which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy or unpredictable weeks, and expand access for people managing work, family, or mobility constraints.
