i know how vulnerable it can feel to share your story with someone new
So let me start by sharing mine! I’m not just a therapist. I’m someone who’s lived through the kind of hard that makes healing feel both necessary and impossible.
But I also know what’s on the other side of doing the work, and I’m here to offer you hope.
about our roots
At Root Cause Wellness and Therapy, we believe healing begins with feeling safe, seen, and supported. Based in Lynchburg, Virginia, our practice offers a personalized and integrative path to mental wellness that looks beyond symptoms to understand the full picture of who you are and what you've been through.
Founded by Jordyn Woods, MA, LPC, CMHIMP, a holistic therapist with a background in both traditional counseling and mind-body healing, Root Cause is here for those navigating anxiety, trauma, chronic stress, burnout, and more. Jordyn combines compassionate care with gentle, evidence-informed tools, such as LENS neurofeedback and nervous system support, to help clients feel calm, clear, and connected, both inside and out.
Previously known as Jordyn Parker, she served the Roanoke community through The Wellness Colab before relocating to Lynchburg to create a new kind of therapy space: One where root cause healing, deep listening, and whole-person care are at the heart of everything we do.

jordyn's story
Several years ago, I was struggling with debilitating fatigue, anxiety, brain fog, chronic pain, and so much more. Like many others, I was prescribed medication for anxiety and depression, but deep down, I knew there was more to it. Through functional and integrative medicine, I learned that my root cause was chronic Lyme disease, which had affected both my physical health and mental well-being. This discovery was life-changing. It showed me that my health couldn’t be fixed with a “one-pill solution” but needed a personalized, comprehensive approach.
Going through this journey to reclaim my health inspired me to help others who, like I once did, felt unheard and stuck. It sparked a deep passion in me to guide people toward healing by addressing the root causes of their struggles. I’ve walked this path myself and understand how overwhelming and isolating chronic stress, burnout, and illness can be.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Certified Integrative Mental Health Practitioner (CIMHP), and Certified LENS Neurofeedback Practitioner, I’m dedicated to helping you find your path to wellness. Through my own experience, I’ve learned how to free myself from the weight of chronic illness, and now I want to help you do the same. You are the expert on your body, and together we’ll create a healing plan that works for you, because I truly believe freedom from chronic stress and illness is possible.
Jordyn blends thoughtful talk therapy with body-based tools like LENS neurofeedback, nervous system regulation, and functional wellness support to help you feel better from the inside out. Her approach is never one-size-fits-all. It’s responsive, relational, and rooted in what actually works for you. She meets you right where you are and walks with you, step by step, toward where you want to be.
the approach
You deserve to be seen, heard, and understood. Not rushed, dismissed, or handed a generic solution. Too often, traditional therapy focuses only on surface symptoms, missing the deeper patterns or root causes. Jordyn offers a different kind of care. One that takes time to truly understand your story, your nervous system, and the ways your body and mind are working to protect you. Together, you’ll explore the full picture, so healing feels possible in your real, everyday life.
the philosophy
Trust is everything in this work. I want you to know every strategy I use with you is grounded in years of education and experience. Paired with a genuine passion for helping people feel whole again, here’s a quick look at where I’ve been, the training I’ve completed, and the tools I bring into our work together
so you can feel assured you’re in capable, caring hands.
