Jody Begley

Licensed Clinical Social Workers

“My professional training and experiences have culminated in a commitment to help individuals cope with debilitating symptoms of anxiety, panic, OCD, and depression. I'm passionate about supporting mothers facing perinatal/postpartum mood and anxiety disorders (PMAD) and families struggling with parenting challenges.”

About Me

Living with debilitating anxiety, panic, OCD, or depression can feel isolating. I create a calm, collaborative space to gently explore these feelings and develop practical coping strategies. My passion is supporting mothers navigating perinatal/postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, and guiding families with parenting challenges. Together, we'll build resilience and find effective ways to navigate daily life, helping you regain calm and control.

Approach

When overwhelming waves of worry, intrusive thoughts, or low energy arrive, I focus on slowing the moment and mapping what feels most urgent. Sessions in Rochester Hills or online move at your pace—brief experiments, focused skill practice, and clear steps to try between meetings, all in English. We track small shifts, use tailored exposure and stress‑management strategies within parenting and perinatal contexts, and keep check‑ins practical so new routines stick. Folks seeking steady, usable change at home often find this approach helpful.
