How Jaime works
She also addresses parenting worries and challenges connected to adoption and foster care. Jaime draws on approaches that help people make sense of their stories and change unhelpful patterns. She incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thought and behavior cycles and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation and coping.
Narrative Therapy is used to reframe experiences and build new meanings. Sessions focus on real-life strategies that can be tried between meetings. Jaime tailors conversations and plans to each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
She aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where people feel heard and understood. Her work also covers concerns such as ADHD, bipolar and mood disorders, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety. Jaime supports people dealing with pregnancy and childbirth transitions, seasonal mood changes, and issues around gender dysphoria and multicultural stressors.

Online support options
Approaches and what online therapy looks like
Jaime commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. DBT emphasizes practical coping skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and lowering impulsive reactions.She also draws on Narrative Therapy to help people rewrite how they view difficult experiences and reclaim agency in their stories. Choosing the right approach is a team effort - Jaime will discuss options with each person and adapt methods to goals and preferences. Together they decide which tools to try and how to measure progress over time.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is useful for more in-depth conversations and skills practice, phone calls work when a quieter setting is needed without video, and chat or text can be a shorter check-in or a way to work between sessions. These formats offer flexibility so people can keep therapy consistent around work, family, and other commitments.
