About JoDee
JoDee Keller is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) practicing in Washington. She brings 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. JoDee focuses on short-term, practical work.
She uses clear goals and steps so people can see progress. Sessions are collaborative and geared toward daily life changes rather than abstract theory. Her background includes work in schools and behavioral health across Illinois, Iowa, and Washington.
How JoDee works
That experience includes supporting students, parents and caregivers, and adults managing ongoing mental health concerns. She draws on that range when framing problems and solutions. JoDee favors approaches that solve immediate problems while building long-term skills.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused strategies, and motivational interviewing to help clients set goals, shift unhelpful patterns, and stay motivated. Mindfulness practices are blended in when they fit the client's needs. She pays attention to the wider context of people's lives, including how sexism, racism, heterosexism, and classism affect well-being.
JoDee aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She adapts the conversation and plan to each person's situation and pace.

Practical approaches for online therapy and real-life change
JoDee often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, or low confidence. CBT breaks problems into small, manageable steps and teaches skills people can use between sessions.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what matters to them and build motivation for change. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about making a change and it focuses on the client’s own reasons and goals.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. JoDee will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection, and all options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
