Background and approach

She aims to make change feel possible and manageable. Her background includes three years of clinical practice as an LCSW. That experience has included work on adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, and divorce or separation.

She also addresses money worries, workplace strain, loneliness, and questions about life purpose. Jaime uses evidence-informed methods to guide sessions. She combines strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, solution-focused work, and trauma-focused approaches.

These methods are woven into practical plans rather than abstract theory. Her style is warm and direct. Jaime listens first, then helps create steps that match a person’s goals and daily life.

She believes taking that first step takes courage, and she offers steady support throughout the process.

Practical approaches for online family and life work

Jaime commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and changes the behaviors that follow, which can reduce anxiety and depression. Motivational interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change and helps boost commitment when making life adjustments or addressing difficult habits.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jaime listens to a person’s goals and concerns, then suggests methods that fit those needs. Together they adjust the plan as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy family schedules and for people balancing work and caregiving. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, while phone, live chat, and text messaging provide options for shorter check-ins or less structured support. These formats make it easier to keep continuity of care and to use therapeutic tools between appointments.

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.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
