Hello, my name is Jody and I am an OUT TRANSGENDER FEMALE living in Columbus, Ohio. I am here to help you with your mental health concerns, Especially if you are struggling with SEXUALITY or GENDER. I'm an LISW-S here in Ohio. I came out publicly as a Transgender female in 2014 (whew!), and have experience with the emotional, physical, social & spiritual aspects of gender transition. My primary focus on Better Help is to work with TRANSGENDER/GENDER QUEER PEOPLE Ages 18+ who are LOOKING FOR LETTERS RELATED TO GENDER TRANSITION. I can ALSO Work with PARTNERS OF TRANS PEOPLE. That is what I have time for and Better Help is one way to give back to the LGBTQIA community that I am a part of. Thank you!

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.

I worked with Jody in the past and totally enjoyed her input and suggestions.
Jody is a great therapist. I would tell anyone that needed one to talk to her. I just think pride the app it’s self monthly is expensive so if not able to afford it this might not be the best option for you.
I highly recommend Jody for anyone struggling with LGBT and codependency issues. She is a great listener and validating. She helped me feel heard in a non-judgmental space and make better decisions for myself.
Good work
JODY IS A WONDERFUL PERSON ANS SHE KNOWS , AND UNDERSTANDS EVERYTHING !!!
Jody is great! She listens, understands, and supports me without telling me what to do. She knows I have the answers inside of me, and that lets me know that too!
Jody is absolutely amazing! She treated me like a friend more than just another client. Jody listened to all of my concerns and helped me navigate issues by reminding me what was important to me. I am so glad I found her and connected with her.
Jody has been exceptional to work with. I appreciate her encouragement as well as her availability via messenger. She has been exactly the guiding hand I needed, compassionate, knowledgable, and has also walked the path which I am currently on now. That is absolutely invaluable to me. I also find her easy to talk to and a very effective and direct communicator.
Talking with Jody is like talking with an old friend. It’s always a comfortable experience. She is very down to earth and so easy to talk to. A great therapist to have if you have gender issues or concerns.
Jody is very kind and attentive, and also offered great resources for my transition. I only worked with her for a short time but it was still a very positive experience!
Jody was an amazing support system during a very difficult time for me. She helped me to better understand myself and find some solutions to questions I had about myself. I am so grateful to her for her advice, guidance, and care throughout my time with her!
Jody has been fantastic and already helping me with my very complicated and difficult life situation
