Hi there, I'm Jamie!

I work with adolescents and adults with a focus on anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD management, parenting strategies, life transitions, and relational/family dynamics. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with family systems, narrative therapy, and solution-focused therapy to help you achieve your goals.

My focus

I enjoy working with teens and adults from varied cultural backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities. My clients include those simply adjusting to a new life transition as well as those who may have a more detailed history of anxiety, depression, or OCD symptoms.

My approach

I tailor my approach to each individual client, utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as my foundational theoretical orientation, while also including elements of family systems, solution-focused, and narrative therapy when appropriate.

My communication style

I place great emphasis on building a strong client-therapist relationship in order to achieve your goals within an environment of nonjudgmental trust and compassion. I strive to offer a personable, calm, and understanding communication style.

My journey to mental healthcare

The field of mental health has been overlooked far too often and for far too long. To be human is to experience difficult emotions and behavioral challenges throughout our lives. I am a people person who finds fulfillment in helping others learn more about themselves and their world while making positive, lasting changes.

My goals for you

I believe the counseling process is a collaborative effort. You are the expert of your own life. I am here to guide you with my knowledge and background, offer reflection and feedback, and provide structure to your goal-setting process.

Our first session

Our first session is the beginning of getting to know each other! I will be asking you questions about your decision to begin therapy and your mental health history, but this is also the time for you to ask any questions you have for me and discuss your thoughts about the therapy process.
