Dr. Jodee Gibson, PCC
Behavioral Health Researcher & Educator
Founder of the Interrupted Emotional Development Theory
From teen mom to PhD, my work was built on one belief: mental health challenges are not always disorders to be labeled and medicated, they're simply evidence of underdeveloped capacity. Given the right environment, development can always resume.
I challenge the status quo...
by teaching educators, clinicians, and behavioral health systems to look at developmental origins rather than the symptomatic surface. Through training, research, and education, I teach people a new understanding of human behavior.
I have a published, empirically grounded theory, peer-reviewed research, and a half-day training that makes that shift possible.
Behavior is not the problem.
It’s simply evidence of development.
