Jimmie Woodward, LMSW

Jimmie Woodward holds an LMSW, which stands for Licensed Master Social Worker, and brings seven years of clinical experience supporting people across a wide range of mental health concerns in Michigan. He has worked with individuals facing persistent and serious conditions including depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, parenting difficulties, anger management, personality disorders, and the effects of physical trauma or emotional abuse. His practice also addresses addictions and impulse-related struggles, bipolar disorder, seasonal mood changes, and issues tied to identity, purpose, and social isolation.

His approach is client-centered and strength-based, grounded in the belief that each person is the expert on their own life. He emphasizes dignity and respect while collaborating with clients to assess needs and build relevant treatment plans. Individual and group therapy sessions emphasize clear therapeutic rapport, sensitivity, and compassion, meeting people where they are in terms of readiness for change.

Interventions are evidence-based and selected to match each person’s goals and circumstances. He draws from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and humanistic principles to create an eclectic, humane framework for care. He acknowledges the courage involved in seeking change and supports individuals as they pursue more meaningful and balanced lives.
