In sessions she will listen to what matters most and then help set small, achievable goals.

How Jamie Uses CBT Online and What to Expect
Jamie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a practical way to connect thoughts, emotions, and actions. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. It can help with stress, self-esteem, and relationship-related thinking.The best approach often emerges in conversation. Jamie will work with the client to figure out which techniques fit their goals and day-to-day life. She treats that choice as a team effort, adjusting methods as progress is made and needs change.
If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats are currently offered before booking because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare, or long commutes. It can also allow shorter check-ins or phone options when bandwidth or camera time is limited. Talk with Jamie about what scheduling and session style will fit your routine and priorities.
