How Jamie Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting controlled by them and focus on actions that matter. It is often used for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. It usually involves concrete exercises and homework between sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and understanding from the therapist so a person feels heard and can build confidence to make changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie talks with each person about goals and preferences and then suggests approaches that fit those needs. She encourages collaboration so the plan can be adjusted as someone learns what helps most.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives. Video calls make it possible to have a face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions can be a good option when video is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers typing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, a caregiving schedule, or other responsibilities while keeping a steady course of care.
