About Jamie

Jamie Blakeman is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), a credential that denotes professional licensure to provide clinical counseling services, with more than 16 years of experience in the mental health field. She specializes in supporting people experiencing severe mental illness, trauma, depression, anxiety, and relational difficulties, and she is particularly invested in working with individuals who face co-occurring disorders or need practical support navigating daily life challenges.

Jamie uses a holistic, integrative approach that draws from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) to tailor care to each person's unique situation. Through a collaborative therapeutic process she aims to increase self-awareness, help clients gain new perspectives, reduce distressing symptoms, and build personal strengths that contribute to a more meaningful life experience.

Central to her practice is the therapeutic relationship, which she cultivates as a nurturing foundation for healing, rebuilding, and increasing resilience. In each session Jamie works to nurture, challenge, support, and understand clients as they move toward their goals and recovery.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jamie Blakeman integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her work to address a range of concerns in online sessions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens closely and helps clients explore their own goals and values, which can be helpful for those seeking greater self-understanding and life direction. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and many daily coping challenges. DBT teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress, which can benefit individuals dealing with emotional instability or trauma responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Jamie works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she adjusts techniques as therapy unfolds so the chosen methods fit the client’s situation and evolve over time.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with a licensed professional - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - which can make it easier to access consistent care around work, family, or travel schedules. These options support continuity of care and allow clients to engage in therapy in formats that feel most practical and comfortable for them.
