Jody JonesDirector of Marketing and Development

    Jody holds a Masters Degree in Counseling from Dallas Baptist University and is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas. Prior to counseling, Jody’s story includes many years in the corporate world so he has a unique understanding of the demands of the business world and societal expectations on men and women.

    Trained in Sex and Love Addiction, Jody works with spouses and their partners to understand addiction and to help them find the road to recovery and a renewed relationship. He is an EMDR certified therapist working with clients on trauma, PTSD and other areas of disturbance, is certified as a a Gottman Level 1 and level 2 Couples therapist, and is a certified Prepare/Enrich Premarital counselor and an ordained minister since 2007.

    Jody sees counseling as part of a holistic process, working with the biological, mental, environmental, and spiritual aspects of a person’s life to find the whole person. Understanding your story, as it relates to God’s story, is a powerful tool toward healing and restoration. The body, mind, and soul are powerful teammates on the journey to wellness.

    He enjoys working with couples and men as they navigate the difficulties of life and seek to better understand themselves and the world around them. He has a special desire, as it states in Isaiah 61:2, “to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and to provide release from darkness for the prisoners”. Life doesn’t have to hold us captive!

An avid reader and life time learner, he enjoys topics such as the neurochemistry of the mind, addiction, nutrition, and anything that helps him connect with and understand what’s going on with a client.
