About Jaime

Jaime Barilla is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in New Jersey with 13 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, anger, parenting concerns, relationship strain, grief, and life changes. Jaime also addresses family-of-origin problems and issues tied to adoption, attachment, and fertility stress.

She describes a person-centered way of working that follows the client's lead. Sessions focus on practical steps the client can use day to day. Jaime draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques to change patterns of thinking and on dialectical skills to manage strong emotions.

Her background includes years of in-home and office-based counseling for a mix of ages and situations. That experience includes addressing child behavioral concerns, parent-child conflict, self-injurious behavior, and trauma-related stress. She runs a company that provides in-home services to high-risk children and families, which informs her practical approach to problem solving.

In session she combines elements from multiple approaches such as motivational interviewing to clarify goals and solution-focused methods to set achievable steps. Emotionally-focused techniques are used when relationship patterns and attachment come into view. Jaime aims for clear goals and skills clients can use between sessions.

She works in English and practices in New Jersey as an LPC. Before booking, users should confirm current session options and scheduling through the site process described below.

How sessions work

How Jaime’s approaches work in virtual sessions

Jaime commonly blends client-centered work with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Client-Centered Therapy means she follows the client's lead, listening to current concerns and letting goals emerge from what matters most. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce stress and anger. DBT offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when feelings run high.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Jaime will work with the client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying a skills-focused plan one month and shifting to more emotion-focused work the next, based on how the client responds.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, allow shorter check-ins, or remove travel time. Jaime emphasizes usable skills and goal setting that clients can practice between sessions, keeping therapy practical and focused on daily life.
