About JoDee
JoDee Keller is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are stressed, anxious, or facing life changes. She also supports those struggling with self-esteem, parenting concerns, grief, and workplace strain. JoDee aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where people can start to make small, practical changes.
Her practice emphasizes short-term, problem-focused work that gets to the heart of what feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused conversations guide many sessions, and Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. Mindfulness practices are used when they fit the person’s goals and energy.
JoDee draws on two decades of care in schools and behavioral health settings. She has worked with children, youth, college students, parents and adults with chronic mental health conditions across Illinois, Iowa, and Washington. That background informs how she looks at stressors at home, school, and work rather than seeing problems in isolation.
She pays attention to the wider context that affects everyday life, including how sexism, racism, heterosexism, and classism shape people’s options and stress. Conversations and plans are tailored so they match each person’s situation, values, and supports. JoDee focuses on clear goals, practical steps, and building confidence to try new ways of coping.
Taking the first step can feel hard. JoDee approaches that first step as a collaborative process and supports people as they try tools and notice what changes work for them.
