Background and approach
Sessions move at a straightforward pace and emphasize what people can do right away. Jamey helps people who feel stuck after big life changes or who are carrying grief, shame, or isolation. She also supports those facing chronic health challenges, caregiver stress, substance concerns, and difficulties with trust or attachment.
Conversations aim to name patterns and try new ways of relating to thoughts and feelings. Her style is collaborative. She treats each person as the expert on their life and works alongside them to set realistic goals.
She offers practical coaching on communication, boundaries, and emotion regulation so people can get back to daily life with more ease. Over two decades of practice shaped a flexible approach. Jamey pairs short-term skill work with deeper exploration when needed.
Her goal is to help people find clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and more satisfying connections.
Using CBT and DBT Online to Build Everyday Skills
Jamey draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking and change unhelpful reactions. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so people can try different behaviors and see what shifts. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT tools focus on practical strategies for strong emotions, impulsivity, and relationship strain. Those skills can help when someone feels overwhelmed or stuck in intense cycles.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past. Together they decide whether to emphasize CBT skill practice, DBT strategies, or a mix of both so the work fits the person’s life.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction for skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Chat and messaging suit shorter updates, real-time coaching, or staggered schedules. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
