About Jamie
Jamie Blakeman is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois with 16 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, relationship and family challenges, grief, addictions, anger, ADHD and related concerns. Jamie also supports people coping with life changes, sleep and eating issues, parenting stress, and career or coaching questions.
Her practice focuses on practical, talk-and-skill sessions. She combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas. Sessions are collaborative and aim to increase awareness and develop concrete strategies for daily life.
Jamie often helps people who have more than one concern at the same time, including co-occurring disorders. She describes therapy as a teamwork process where she listens, offers direct feedback, and helps clients test new ways of coping. The work tends to mix real-world problem solving with skills practice.
She pays attention to how problems show up in relationships and day-to-day routines. That can mean looking at communication habits, stress patterns at work, or ways anger builds and gets expressed. Sessions may include goal-setting, behavioral experiments, and mindfulness exercises to reduce reactivity.
Jamie accepts international clients and provides services in English. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Jamie uses therapy methods online
Jamie uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) most often alongside DBT and mindfulness techniques. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and making the conversation about your goals, which helps when sorting out anger and relationship strain. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical steps to change responses that fuel frustration or low mood. DBT contributes concrete skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, useful when anger feels overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them based on progress and feedback, so the plan fits real life rather than theory.
