We all have the strengths and skills within ourselves needed to make changes we desire in our lives. Sometimes we just need a little help accessing it. I use a collaborative approach to my therapeutic work with individuals, couples, and families, meaning we work together to find the best way forward. I will help guide you to discover your and/or your family’s strengths while cultivating a stronger sense of self within your relationships.

Self-Esteem & Anxiety Individual Therapy. Couple and Relationship Therapy. Parent-Child Relationship Therapy. I work with couples who desire to cultivate a deeper connection, intimacy, and trust. In our sessions, we will work together to uncover and address troublesome patterns blocking you and your partner from connection and healing. I also help parents & children strengthen their relationships and create healthier family dynamics through bridging communication gaps, nurturing mutual understanding, and creating a more supportive space.

Staying connected to your partner can be tough - even when there’s a lot of love in your relationship. In fact, being in love can make it that much more painful when you feel far away from or unheard by “your person.” I use Emotionally Focused Therapy to help couples who love one another deeply, yet feel like they are missing each other. My approach is nurturing, compassionate, intuitive, and grounded in evidence-based practice. I love helping parents of young children, pregnant and postpartum couples navigate the challenges that come with life with kids.

As a therapist, my role is to guide you to achieving your personal treatment goals to live a happy & fulfilling life. I specialize in trauma and use EMDR therapy for treatment. I also have experience working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, life changes & transitions such as divorce, school/job changes, relocations, & friendship/relationship challenges. I meet you where you are in your journey & determine the therapeutic modality after getting to know you & your needs. I have been a Psychotherapist for over 15 years & am passionate about helping people reach their full potential in life!

I am honored to provide support for individuals, couples, and families during challenging times. I believe in the power of collaborative relationships to uncover your innate strengths, perseverance, and authentic self. Whether you're dealing with everyday stressors or contemplating existential questions, my approach is tailored to you – no one-size-fits-all solutions here. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey toward a more vibrant and fulfilling life.

Welcome to my office, would you like some tea? Feel free to make yourself comfortable, and start wherever you'd like. As your individual & couples counselor, I am here to delve into the depths of your unique experience. My goal is to provide a safe space where you feel comfortable and confident exploring your inner-self, nurturing your relationships, expanding your deepest curiosities, and healing any emotional wounds along the way. Therapy doesn't always have to be scary or painful, so take a moment to bring attention to your breath, and when you feel ready, shoot me a e-mail to see how I can help.

We are a team of therapists who use strength-based and expressive therapies to help children, teens, adults, and families work through difficulties, learn more about themselves, and learn new coping strategies. We have dedicated our careers to supporting families in our community and are passionate about advocating for and supporting our LGBTQIA+ community. We enjoy supporting those experiencing family changes, illness or death in the family, anxiety, behavioral, mood, identity, self-esteem, and confidence issues.

We are all faced with times in our lives when we need a helping hand to get back on track. I work collaboratively with my clients to empower them with skills and strategies to feel forward progress. I work with couples and individuals 13 years and older. I am specially trained to treat trauma, grief and loss and would love to work with you on your journey. My special interests include working with military/veteran families and treating PTSD in the family system. I utilize EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) for treating trauma. I believe that we can all heal and learn when given the tools, compassion and support that we need.

I work best with individuals, couples and families on these issues: Couple/Relationship conflict, Parenting/Family issues, Grief and loss, Life Transitions, Anger Management, Self-Esteem, Identity formation, LGBTQI/ Gender Identity, Spirituality, and Meaning Making.

Therapy can be a transformative space for individuals, couples, and families to reimagine the way they relate to themselves and one another. Deep down, we believe we all want what is best for ourselves, our relationships and our families, but sometimes the pains from the past and uncertainty of life can block us from fulfillment and true connection. Life is difficult and can bring unimaginable pain. Relationships and parenting are complex. Everyone needs support.

By now you may feel like you've tried everything. Perhaps your home has become a battleground, filled with fights that repeat over and over without any progress. Maybe you feel like you have hit a wall with your partner and aren’t sure how to move forward, or maybe you feel stuck, watching from the sidelines as your child navigates the many challenges of adolescence. Taking action can help resolve these feelings of helplessness and taking the initiative to seek treatment is the first step forward. If you or your child is struggling to live a fulfilling life—or even struggling to make it through the day—it’s time to seek help.

Relationships evoke our deepest longings and fears, and touch on wounds that may have been long hidden, wounds which we’ve often lived a lifetime without recognizing. The pain of disconnection we feel in relationships, the heated arguments and periods of distance or alienation, can leave us lost and confused, stuck in emotional knots, with our desire for closeness vying against our protective reactions. Cycles of conflict may escalate, and with them, the pain. All the while, deep down, we quietly long to share ourselves more honestly and fully with those whom we are closest to.

I provide a safe, gentle environment to allow clients to grow and make positive changes in their lives. Utilizing a variety of evidence-based approaches, with the client's unique needs in mind, I bring a collaborative approach to finding healing, empowerment and strength. I am passionate about my work, and I am able to support adults, children, couples, adolescents, and families.

How can I help? Are you hoping for: feeling better than you do right now, inner peace, emotional healing, an improved outlook, a new paradigm, feeling listened to and a better understanding of yourself and/or others? I come to the therapeutic space with 20+ years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. I trust the therapeutic process will benefit anyone with an open mind and heart and willingness to try.

Jamie is a passionate and dedicated therapist who has worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families throughout her career. Jamie supports those who struggle with the difficulties from the stressor of daily life, mental health issues like depression and anxiety, barriers surrounding trauma, motherhood and postpartum, ADD/ADHD, substance use, grief and loss, and feelings of being overwhelmed. If you are feeling lost, having challenges in relationships, life situations, or you feel burdened by anxiety and depression, Jamie might be a good fit to help support your path in feeling better.

Dealing with trauma and past hurts, struggling with work, relationships, or addiction, managing depression & anxiety or to better understand one's gender identity or sexuality - it isn't easy to address any of these things. I see therapy as a safe, judgment-free, shame-free, and confidential space, where you are free to vent, confide, cry, discuss, imagine, find strength, and be empowered. Most importantly, therapy is a place for hope to come alive, to learn new coping skills, to achieve personal growth, and to discover you are strong, valuable, and greater than any struggle you might have. Change is possible!

Anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem making you feel like there must be more to life than what you are currently experiencing? Has your relationship with your partner, spouse, or children left you wanting more from these connections? Sometimes the monotony of life gets in the way of us becoming the people we want to be. I believe each individual, couple, and family have particular gifts and qualities that make them unique and I love exploring and harnessing these strengths with you to become the best version of yourself.
