About Codi

Codi Kyle is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who blends client-centered care with practical, goal-focused methods. She aims to help people reduce anxiety, manage stress, and gain clearer control over addictive patterns. Her style is straightforward and collaborative, with an emphasis on small, useful steps clients can use right away.

She trained at Trevecca Nazarene University and transitioned into therapy after a career in corporate human resources. That background informs her interest in career concerns and money and financial issues. Her practice is rooted in Tennessee, where she has lived for many years.

Over 15 years she has worked in outpatient programs, substance abuse settings, and inpatient mental health treatment. That range gives her experience with people facing strong life changes and complex stressors. She uses focused strategies to help people steady daily routines and cope with difficult feelings.

Codi works with issues such as abandonment and attachment wounds, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, and control issues. She also helps with divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, loneliness, and finding life purpose.

In sessions she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and a client-centered stance. The work often combines identifying unhelpful thoughts, telling and revising personal stories, and setting short-term goals to move forward. She supports people who want concrete tools alongside compassionate listening.

How chosen approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and responding to each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what matters most, and helps people make decisions that feel right for them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they will try methods that match the client's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into busy days. Online options can make it simpler to have a brief check-in between work tasks or to meet when travel or mobility is a factor. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are available before booking. A conversation about goals and logistics helps ensure sessions match your routine and needs.
