More about Jodi

- LMSW
Hello and I’m so glad you are seeking support with your life. I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in Michigan, a Board Certified Diplomat and Certified Addictions Counselor, I have been in human service for over 20 years. I have worked with children age 3 to seniors over 100 years old. I've worked with individuals with a history of abuse/neglect, addiction, anxiety, chronic illness, depression, domestic violence, grief and loss and those spiritually seeking. My therapeutic expertise includes trauma informed care, cognitive behavioral and solution focused interventions, and motivational interviewing. All interventions stem from a person-centered holistic approach. My professional experience ranges from case management in community mental health, delinquency and youth residential facilities, Home Health Care and Hospice, starting numerous outpatient substance abuse programs, nonprofit executive leadership, business consulting and life/spiritual coaching.
I believe in the celebration and acceptance of every person. We examine all aspects of a person’s life and help find what intersects. The overarching goal is balanced living and having tools at our disposal in order to become skillful at creating self-defined balance for ourselves whenever we face life challenges that take us off center. I use all that I have learned to help those who choose to receive it.
Personally, I enjoy cooking, traveling, and adventure experiences like zip lining and skydiving and most importantly helping others find mental, physical and spiritual health. It would be an honor to assist you along your life’s journey.
I wish you peace and fulfillment!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

A great therapist!!!
She amazing!
I love Jodi! She is thoughtful, kind, listens, and really invests in you as a person. I highly recommend her and BetterHelp!
I have heard that it takes several sessions to get comfortable with a health care professional, and that was not the case with Jodi! We were laughing, and I was able to open up within our first meeting. She gives me encouragement in all aspects of my life, with actionable suggestions that really have an impact. I truly enjoy our weekly appointments and check ins!
I absolutely LOVE my counsellor she is AMAZING!! From day 1 she made me feel comfortable its almost like talking to one of mt girl friends over a glass of wine venting about life but getting great advise in return. I can imagine not being able to talk to her now. I've grown so much since counseling with her not only as a women but in my career. I'd recommend her to anyone no questions asked!!!
She’s the best counselor I’ve ever had. She listens well and remembers things you tell her. She really cares about your wellbeing
Jodi is a kind, flexible, authentic individual who is extremely helpful and professional, helping me navigating through my anxiety. It takes some time to find someone you fit with, and we clicked right away. This was integral to take steps forward quickly, and I look forward to our sessions.
Great therapist.
Jodi clearly has plenty of experience counseling other people with similar concerns as me and I feel understood when I talk about a variety of areas in my life. I feel like I have space to talk freely but also receive deeper insight, suggestions and tools to move forward in my life with less anxiety.
Jodi is so nice and thoughtful. She listens very well and has great suggestions. If you have Jodi for a therapist you are very lucky! I highly recommend her.
Jodi Luster is great! This is my first time ever doing anything like this and from day 1 she has made me feel comfortable and safe. Talking with her is like sitting in your living room with a close friend sharing. She helps me realize things about my self in which I never thought of. I can tell she really loves what she does and cares for the people she works with. I truly appreciate her.
