About

I am Jody Tompkins, M.A., LMFT, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and trained coach with a private practice office in Ventura, CA. I currently provide psychotherapy services in California, both in person and teletherapy, and coaching teleservices to clients, via phone or video conference, nationally.

I have spent over 30 years working in varied settings, including the non-profit sector, private practice, public schools, phone coaching, and as an Adjunct Faculty Member at Antioch University Santa Barbara. Additionally, I have provided services on a national Helpline for patients and family members affected by cancer

Your Psychotherapist

As a psychotherapist I treat individual adults, couples, and adolescents for issues such as anxiety, depression, chronic illness and grief, ADHD (both adult and youth), addiction/co-addiction and life transitions. I also have specialized experience working with cancer patients and their families. My professional orientation is rooted in positive psychology, weaving in systemic, developmental and psychodynamic perspectives.

I hold an M.A. degree in Counseling Psychology from University of California, Santa Barbara, with a Specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am a member of the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists (CAMFT).

Life Coach

I will be your personal trainer, and can assist you in developing a keen awareness of yourself, your needs, and what motivates you to action so you can work most effectively on your own behalf and create balance in doing so.

  • Coaching will help you to identify and take action toward your centrally important professional and/or personal goals.
  • Coaching presumes you are doing many things well and now want to do even better.
I’m so amazed with the conversation that I had while working with Jody. She made me realize some key qualities that I possess that could help me in my search for a new job position as well as a direction to go in while seeking a career! I’m not only analytical and logical, but I am passionate and heartfelt! I love that Jody was able to put that into perspective for me! Thank you!!
