I work with individuals who are struggling with issues that interfere with their overall life satisfaction and level of happiness. My basic optimism that people can change drives my practice philosophy. I recognize that there are motivational factors that interfere with people's readiness for change and therefore see myself as a change agent to help the individuals I work with to become ready and then able to make changes in terms of coping skills, relationship skills, managing mood instability, substance issues, eating disorders and other compulsive behaviors. My years of practice experience and training have prepared me to offer skilled interventions and expertise.

I am here to help. I believe no one is on an island and finding someone to help create a safe and comforting space for you to express yourself is just the beginning of the therapeutic journey. In this space, you can feel guided through everyday life stressors. I also believe it is important to remain grounded and centered within yourself while creating new ways to manage and cope with hardships. Building a strong sense of self creates a suit of armor that can protect you from many factors that once impacted you negatively.

I love helping people live their best lives. For some people, that means managing anxiety or depression, starting a relationship, or ending one. Sometimes we need some help navigating the feelings that come along with life changes related to parenting, work, and finding meaning. I use a cognitive approach to increase insight and understanding about who we are and why we do what we do.

If you're using drugs/alcohol too much, and you've tried but can't stop. If you're lost, miserable and scared, and you want to be found. If you're haunted by a trauma that wont release its grip on your mind. I offer a compassionate, supportive and direct approach to help you meet your needs and achieve your goals in life. If you're ready to explore the underlying, negative beliefs that hold you down and fuel chronic negative thoughts and behaviors, then call me. We will work together to rediscover your authentic self, that person you somehow left behind and who is waiting for you to come back.

It is my belief that mental illness and addiction can be treated successfully when a therapist and client have an active, open, and trusting, collaborative relationship. Sometimes an individual who is suffering needs to believe that there are solutions available for them and the chance to change. I have extensive training in working clinically with adolescents, young adults, and adults suffering from depression, anxiety, job burnout, addiction, or painful life transitions. I am a cognitive behavioral therapist and am extremely focused on helping my clients find solutions for their current problems.

By searching for a therapist, you've already taken the first step in making positive change in your life. I aim to create a warm and supportive therapy environment where clients feel understood and validated. I work with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family issues, grief and bereavement, substance abuse, trauma, and career challenges. I approach therapy from a strength-based, relational, and psychodynamic perspective. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and Functional Family Therapy (FFT). I also incorporate elements of mindfulness and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) into my work.

Because of the remarkable, truly life transformative process of psychotherapy, I'm in love with my work: I have had the wonderful opportunity to build my clients' confidence and empower their lives. As I have been fortunate to have learned some of the most effective means to motivate people towards change, I've watched my clients resolve their emotional dilemmas, to discover the kind of life that had eluded them: One with a greater sense of energy, optimism, love, ambition, friendship, joy, career, work, marital and monitory success.

Have you ever noticed how negativity becomes THE driving force in our lives? We use fear to keep us complacent, bad to keep us avoidant, sad to keep us constant, and all we are left with is feeling lost and uncertain. Questioning our every move we ask others for advice. It’s no wonder we end up feeling, angry, isolated, or disgusted with who and where we are. It’s possible to put an end to all of this, for good. You can become your biggest cheerleader instead of your worst citric. Feel confident and embrace change instead of running from it. Be the person you know you've wanted to be. I want to help you make it a reality.

One of Jamie’s primary goals is to help you to “find a home within yourself.” She believes that a connected and safe therapeutic relationship is at the heart of treatment, and that this is what allows growth and healing to take place. Jamie is skilled in helping clients examine patterns that no longer serve them, and in guiding them to explore healthier and more nourishing ways of being in the world.

In my role as a therapist I try to gain an understanding of what the patient believes to be their presenting problem(s), what they would like to achieve at this stage in their life, and then working with them on developing techniques to overcome the obstacles that they perceive are preventing them from reaching their potential.
