How Cody works
Cody uses simple exercises, mindfulness practices, and guided reflection so people can try new ways of coping between meetings.

He uses client-centered methods to center each person's priorities and existential approaches to examine meaning, choice, and values during life transitions.
Motivational interviewing helps when someone is weighing change or feeling stuck. Sessions often include practical skill-building. That can mean breathing and grounding tools, steps to improve sleep and routines, or coaching for setting boundaries and pursuing goals.
He also helps people talk through complex family history, adoption or foster care concerns, and commitment or control issues. With 11 years in the field and a New Mexico LCSW license, Cody brings steady clinical experience.

How attachment, client-centered, and mindfulness work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and closeness. Online sessions can be used to notice patterns in relationships and practice different ways of connecting and responding. Client-centered therapy centers the person's values and goals, letting the therapist follow what matters most and offer reflection and support to help make decisions. Mindfulness therapy teaches easy exercises for noticing thoughts and bodily sensations, which can reduce reactivity and improve sleep, stress, and focus.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to find methods that match a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
Online formats offer flexibility and convenience. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for fuller connection. Phone sessions can be helpful when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions, do brief coaching, or get support during a tough day. These options make it possible to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other busy schedules while still getting steady guidance.
