Jeffrey Haddock, LMSW

Jeffrey Haddock is a licensed clinical social worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 14 years of experience. He focuses on practical, direct help for people who are stressed, worried, grieving, or dealing with trauma and addiction. He aims to meet people where they are and support steps toward clearer days.

He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-based approaches. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. He helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new habits, and try small experiments between meetings.

Jeffrey adapts sessions to individual needs. Conversations often include skill practice, reflection on relationships, and plans for coping with tough feelings. He encourages realistic goals and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

His background includes work with stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, and issues around self-esteem and parenting. He also supports people facing life changes, bipolar challenges, ADHD, eating concerns, anger, and relationship questions.

The tone in sessions is respectful and straightforward. He aims to create a space where people can talk frankly about what matters. The focus is on practical tools and understanding what gets in the way of change.

Practical therapy approaches for online care

Jeffrey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on spotting and testing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then practicing small changes. ACT helps people clarify values and take action toward them while learning to accept difficult feelings.

He also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationship patterns affect current reactions. That work helps people notice repeating patterns and try different ways of connecting or setting boundaries.

Finding the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those goals. Sessions can shift over time if something else seems more helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people work face-to-face for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a work break. Live chat or text messaging give shorter check-ins, quick coaching, or support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy schedules.
