Working in Alignment

As clinical social workers in the behavioral health field, Jodi and Valerie have a combined 37 years of experience. Prior to developing Aligned Clinical LCSW Consulting, they worked together at a behavioral health department within a local hospital where they conceptualized and launched the hospital’s very first outpatient program. 

In 2019, Jodi and Val were recognized by the Central New York Care Collaborate for setting an exemplary model of an integrated behavioral health program. Their program model and policies  were presented at a consortium of Central and Upstate New York hospitals and health care systems. Together, their years of knowledge, experience, and empathic practices provide a safe and supportive space for formal groups and individuals experiencing trauma.

Their collaborative energy and individual approaches inspired a deeper conversation about what employers were missing. Noticing a lack of clinical debriefing services offered online or in their community, they decided to step up. As licensed clinical social workers, they take an evidence-based approach to mental health to best support those impacted by tragedy or navigating crises. Specializing in clinical response and mental health support, they provide education and applied practices to those who are facing challenges or dealing with highly-emotional situations. 

Aligned Clinical LCSW Consulting is their collective practice where they offer corporate wellness consulting, debriefings, training, informational sessions and 1:1 therapy to their local communities and virtually across the country.
