Evidence-Based Tools, Delivered Online
Jamie Blakeman, LCPC, integrates practical, skills-focused therapy methods that translate well to online care. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that can fuel anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship strain. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) builds everyday skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and more effective communication, which can be especially helpful during intense feelings, conflict, or major life changes. Mindfulness Therapy supports clients in paying attention to the present moment with less reactivity, which can be useful when managing stress, mood swings, or the lingering effects of trauma.Because people and circumstances vary, the best approach is not one-size-fits-all. Jamie works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand what has and has not worked before, and choose strategies that align with each person’s needs and preferences. The focus stays flexible, with room to adjust over time as new insights and priorities emerge.
Online therapy also offers practical options for staying connected. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions, and they can use live chat or text-based messaging when that format is a better fit. These choices can make it easier to access support consistently, even with busy schedules, travel, or changing routines.
