Jamie Brandmair, LCSW

Jamie Brandmair is an LCSW with 15 years of clinical experience in Tennessee. She carries prior work across outpatient, inpatient, school-based, detention, and in-home settings. Her practice addresses common problems people bring when stress or strong emotions get in the way of daily life.

Brandmair helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and anger. She also works with concerns such as relationship strain, parenting stresses, addictions, grief, and sleep or eating difficulties. She lists support for LGBT issues, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and career or life-change challenges.

Her background includes a mix of psychodynamic and client-centered approaches. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR as part of her work, and also incorporates motivational interviewing and narrative therapy when helpful. That variety lets her use different ways to address upsetting memories, unhelpful thinking patterns, and behavior that people want to change.

Sessions tend to focus on practical steps and on talking through patterns that keep problems repeating. She draws on experiences from many care settings to adjust how she offers help. People who have a history of trauma should note she has personal and professional experience with trauma-related issues.

Clients are guided to set goals they can work toward between sessions. The emphasis is on clearer thinking about problems, learning skills that reduce reactivity, and addressing past events that continue to affect daily life.
