Certified through the AEDP Institute as an Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy clinician and licensed in California as LMFT #52048, Jodi Staszak runs a women-owned Hillcrest practice rooted in attachment-based couples and individual therapy. Her training pipeline ran from the VA San Diego Healthcare System Family Mental Health Program — where she helped establish a Saturday couples clinic for veterans and partners — through Aurora Behavioral Healthcare's intensive inpatient unit for active-duty service members and a six-year tenure inside Kaiser Permanente, a depth of veteran-and-systems experience that pairs naturally with the depth-oriented work at Inspired Psychology. Her master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy comes from the University of San Diego's School of Leadership and Education Sciences, with the private practice opening on a part-time basis in 2012 and going full-time in 2019. Group programming is a programmatic anchor: she facilitates ongoing Overcoming Codependency cohorts, DBT-skills groups, and EFT-for-couples Hold Me Tight workshops. The AEDP-and-EFT combination keeps her caseload in attachment-and-experiential territory distinct from the ERP-and-exposure OCD framework anchoring Chudy Counseling Services. The most demanding work she takes on is advanced EFT couples therapy where one or both partners carry unprocessed military-service trauma, integrating AEDP affect-tracking with the structured Stage 1 de-escalation protocols of EFT across long-arc treatment.
