About Jamie

Jamie Dikes is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She aims to make first steps easier and meets each person with calm, straightforward support. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental so clients can speak honestly about what they are facing.

Jamie creates a space where practical coping strategies are paired with attentive listening. She works with clients on anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.

Background and approach

She also supports people navigating ADHD and trauma-related concerns. Her broader interests include adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger Syndrome, caregiver stress, fertility challenges, and intellectual disability. She also addresses life purpose, self-love, social anxiety, and phobia-related worries.

These focus areas inform the kinds of issues she commonly helps people talk through. Jamie is licensed in Texas as an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - and has eight years of clinical experience. She draws on evidence-based techniques to help people build skills and find clearer ways forward.

Conversations tend to be practical, grounded, and paced to each person’s comfort. For many, the thought of starting therapy is daunting. Jamie acknowledges that and aims to make the process manageable.

She encourages realistic goals and steady progress while adapting to each person’s needs.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Jamie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that work over video and messaging. One approach focuses on building coping skills to manage stress and anxiety through practical exercises and step-by-step practice. This helps people develop routines and strategies they can use between sessions.

Another approach centers on processing grief and trauma in a paced way that respects each person’s readiness. It combines careful listening with activities designed to reduce overwhelm and increase emotional tolerance. These methods are intended to help people feel steadier day to day.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust techniques as needed. That partnership guides which methods are used and how sessions are structured.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats let people fit sessions into busy schedules and keep momentum when life gets hectic. Licensed professionals can deliver many evidence-based tools effectively in these remote formats, making it easier to keep working toward goals from wherever the client is located.
