Welcome. My name is Jody Pitcher with Intuitus Group Counseling Clinic, PLLC (Supervised by Jennifer Madere, LPC-S).

When a person experiences trauma, extreme life stressors, or seeking to understand a deeper self, it is not uncommon for their life to unravel or create confusion. My passion is to bring healing to those who have been through a traumatic/stressful experience or searching for clarity. I help my clients, who include children and adolescents (ages 12+), adults, couples, first responders/medical staff, and military veterans to explore and process a healthier way of coping, find a new perception of themselves, process old wounds, and strengthening their relationships so they can feel safe, connected, complete, and at peace towards an authentic self to flourish.

I view each client as an individual with unique circumstances capable of change. Therefore, I use different techniques and theories to serve the needs of each client. While sharing your story with a stranger can cause anxiety, my therapy approach is client-centered, which provides the space to share your story at your pace. My training and experience includes the areas of trauma-informed attachment theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to treat trauma and other life stressors. If your faith/spirituality is essential to your healing, I am comfortable and have training with incorporating that piece into therapy.

I have 18 years of nursing experience, which has provided opportunities for me to work with a diverse, multicultural population. As a nurse, I cared for the sick and educated the community on improving their health. In July 2019, I spent 2.5 weeks in Kenya working with the Into Abba’s Arms organization, which provided trauma education and counseling to local hospitals, neighborhoods, maximum prison, teachers, and pastors. While I cannot offer medical advice, I can serve my clients by using my nursing background, faith, and counseling to have a holistic encounter with clients.
