Great to meet you!

I'm Jamie - counselor, step-mom, Truth-seeker. I became a professional counselor in 2021 (incredible timing) and was immediately thrown into the deep end of helping people understanding how they fit into a swiftly changing world. My first three years were focused on treating mood disorders such as Borderline and Bipolar, as well as supporting the families around those with the diagnosis. My heart in this profession is to help unravel and understand trauma and its lasting effects and move toward healing, growth, and renewed purpose. I have expanded to assisting groups, families, and couples resolve conflict and understand why they show up in relationships the way they do - and help them figure out how to become the person they ultimately wish to be.

My approach to therapy

My philosophy is that healing cannot come without understanding and that every person deserves the truth. Real change comes through honesty paired with compassion; I listen carefully, name what is happening, and walk alongside clients toward choices that align with the life they seek. I lead with curiosity with the end goal of developing a path through the weeds that leads to healing, empowerment, and character growth. For most people, therapy is not a life-long service and has a measurable end we'll work toward to get you feeling confident, competent, self-respecting, and authentic.

What you can expect from me

This is the fun part, let's get started! I love meeting new people and learning about their lives. I do ask lots of questions and I'm willing to tell you about myself too so you don't feel like you're just talking to a therapy robot. Usually by the end of the first session, we have a pretty good idea of how I can assist with what you're looking for and what it'll take to get you where you want to be.
