Unlocking Wellness: A Deep Dive into Evidence-Based Therapy Methods with Jodi Paris, LMFT
Introduction to Evidence-Based Therapy methods
When it comes to therapy, the effectiveness of the chosen approach is crucial. Evidence-based therapies are those methods that have been scientifically tested and proven effective. They are grounded in research and provide therapists with tools to help their clients overcome a variety of issues. Jodi Paris, a licensed therapist in California and Florida, incorporates a range of these strategies into her practice.
In this article, we’ll explore five evidence-based approaches she uses: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, and Positive Psychology.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a popular approach that helps clients identify and change destructive or disturbing thought patterns that have a negative influence on behavior and feelings. It’s effective for conditions like anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Jodi Paris may employ CBT to help clients reframe their thought processes and responses to challenging situations, leading to improved coping mechanisms and healthier behaviors. A client who struggles with self-esteem issues, for instance, may learn to replace negative self-talk with positive affirmations, fostering increased confidence over time.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT aims to change the relationship individuals have with their own thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations that are feared or avoided. Instead of trying to control or eliminate difficult feelings, ACT teaches clients to notice, accept, and embrace their thoughts, and to detect patterns that may be causing psychological stress.
Using ACT, Jodi helps clients, especially those dealing with complex emotional challenges, understand that struggling against emotional pain often creates more suffering. She guides them to accept their feelings, identify their values, and use this knowledge to guide, inspire, and motivate changes to their behavior.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
DBT is a cognitive-behavioral treatment approach with a focus on the psychosocial aspects of therapy. It emphasizes the development of four skill sets: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
Jodi Paris employs DBT with clients who may struggle with self-regulation or who exhibit self-destructive behaviors. For instance, a client with emotional regulation difficulties may learn to identify triggers, reduce emotional reactivity, and apply problem-solving skills.

Mindfulness Therapy Method
Mindfulness is the practice of being present and engaged in the moment, fully aware of our thoughts and feelings without distraction or judgment. It’s been found to reduce stress, improve attention, and manage emotional reactions.
In her practice, Jodi Paris incorporates mindfulness techniques to help clients calm their minds, focus on the present moment, and gain a better understanding of their own thoughts and feelings. It’s especially beneficial for clients dealing with anxiety or stress-related issues. Learn more about Mindfulness
Positive Psychology
Positive Psychology focuses on fostering positive emotions, strengths, and virtues. It helps individuals to focus on their strengths and capacities, rather than weaknesses, promoting resilience and a positive self-view.
Jodi Paris uses this approach to help clients find more joy and meaning in their lives. By focusing on strengths and virtues, clients can create a more positive outlook, enhancing overall life satisfaction and well-being. Learn more about Positive Psychology
