How Jamie’s approaches translate to online work

Jamie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as core tools. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when thoughts or feelings are hard, which can help with chronic stress, life changes, and managing long-term health challenges. CBT looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and emotions affect each other and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jamie will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adapt as progress is tracked. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to keep using and which to change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking. The therapist's biography does not list specific remote formats, so checking available formats is advised. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, allow quick check-ins around a workday, and support ongoing practice of skills between meetings. Many people find that regular online sessions help maintain momentum when addressing stress, grief, or coping with health conditions.
