About Jaime

Jaime Barbosa is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical help for common life struggles. He speaks English and Spanish and works with people facing stress, anxiety, sleeping problems, low self-esteem, depression, parenting concerns, and issues around intimacy and anger. Jaime keeps explanations direct and uses straightforward tools so families and parents can try things between sessions.

He draws on 12 years of clinical experience and training in clinical psychology.

Background and approach

Jaime blends approaches rather than relying on a single method. You can expect clear strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside patient, person-focused work that centers each person’s goals. Jaime also uses skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness to help manage emotions and improve day-to-day coping.

Motivational Interviewing shapes how he supports change when people feel stuck or unsure about next steps. These methods are used in simple, step-by-step ways that make sense for busy lives. Sessions cover practical topics like communication, workplace stress, fatherhood challenges, codependency patterns, and feeling isolated.

Jaime pays attention to each person’s culture and beliefs and tailors suggestions to fit their life. He aims to make therapy useful and down-to-earth. Clients work together with Jaime to set manageable goals and track progress.

He prefers an honest, respectful style and offers multiple online formats for convenient scheduling and follow-up.

Therapeutic approaches and what to expect online

Jaime commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation and interpersonal skills that can help with anger, relationship strain, and intense emotions. Finally, he uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on each person’s goals and values, offering a respectful, listening-based stance that supports personal insight.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jaime collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, pace, and preferences. He checks in on what helps and adjusts the plan over time so the approach stays practical and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options let people schedule sessions around family and work commitments and return to written guidance between meetings. The variety of formats supports different needs - some people prefer live conversation, others like ongoing text check-ins - and offers flexible ways to keep therapy consistent in a busy life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
