Online support options
Practical trauma-informed care delivered online
Jamie draws on evidence-based approaches that focus on understanding and responding to trauma in everyday life. Trauma-informed care focuses on recognizing how past harm affects current thoughts, feelings, and behavior, and then uses steady, paced work to rebuild safety and coping skills. Techniques for mood and anxiety involve practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and to practice calmer responses during stress.Another common approach involves skills for improving self-esteem and boundaries. This means identifying unhelpful patterns, practicing new ways to set limits, and trying short behavioral experiments between sessions to see what works. These methods are useful for depression, social anxiety, codependency, and recovery after abuse.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients and the therapist choose techniques together based on what feels most helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is low or a camera feels like too much. Live chat or text messaging can be helpful for brief check-ins, shorter conversations, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
