About Jade
Jade Dodde is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Michigan who focuses on helping adults manage difficult feelings and regain a sense of steadiness. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addiction concerns, ADHD, and major life changes. Her approach is warm and down-to-earth, and she treats each person as the expert on their own life.
Jade emphasizes practical skills for emotional regulation. Sessions often include concrete coping strategies, mindfulness practices, and techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy to reduce distress and increase day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
She also uses elements from dialectical behavior therapy to help with strong emotions and interpersonal difficulties. Her background includes eight years of experience in social work, supporting adults through trauma, grief, relationship strain, and challenges tied to parenting or career shifts. That experience informs a collaborative style where goals are set together and progress is tracked in clear steps.
Jade helps people make sense of how past experiences affect present behavior, using attachment-based ideas to untangle relationship patterns and foster healthier connections. She incorporates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing when trauma work is needed, pairing it with grounding tools so processing feels manageable. Therapy with Jade blends practical coaching and traditional counseling.
She focuses on measurable goals and steady skill-building. People can expect straightforward conversation, hands-on strategies, and ongoing adjustments to match their needs.

How specific approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that matter to you. In practice this often means noticing painful thoughts without getting stuck and choosing small, value-driven steps to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches skills to change them, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep, and anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication, which helps when emotions feel overwhelming.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made. That means trying different exercises, tracking what helps, and refining the plan together.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and the use of worksheets or guided exercises. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t desired. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions, use short coaching-style exchanges, or get support without a full session. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, or travel.
