About Jade
Jade Dodde is an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker practicing in Michigan with eight years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar concerns, relationship and family strain, grief, substance use, and major life changes. She also lists blended family issues among her focus areas and supports people dealing with parenting and intimacy-related worries.
Jade prefers a straightforward and collaborative way of working. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and helps them slow down, notice patterns, and build practical skills. Sessions focus on emotional regulation, clearer communication, and setting achievable goals that fit everyday life.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to reframe thoughts and clarify values. She also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at relationship patterns and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for managing intense emotions. These methods are used to address trauma, mood instability, and chronic stress in stepfamily or blended household contexts as needed.
In-session work may include learning coping tools, practicing new ways to talk about boundaries, and creating step-by-step plans for change. Jade aims for concrete, measurable steps rather than vague advice. She encourages clients to try small changes between visits and then review what worked.
People who contact her can expect a direct, down-to-earth style with an emphasis on practical skills. If someone needs information about current session formats, they should confirm options before booking so they know how Jade is working right now.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and then take small, value-driven steps. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where choices feel unclear. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people change how they connect, which can be helpful for blended household tensions and co-parenting dynamics.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jade will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That decision is collaborative and can shift as clients try tools and report back on what helps.
Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how she is meeting with people right now. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It can also let clients practice skills in the context of everyday life and then bring observations back to session for concrete follow-up.
