About Jamie

Jamie Clausen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and anger. Her focus includes depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, addiction, and relationship or family-related struggles.

She takes a client-centered approach in session, which means conversations start with the person in front of her. Jamie uses concrete tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation and mindfulness techniques to steady attention.

Sessions often cover practical skills for communicating better and managing impulses. Jamie helps people unpack how patterns in relationships and family life contribute to ongoing stress or anger. She offers straightforward strategies for coping with panic, sleep problems, and low self-esteem.

Her background includes a decade in community mental health settings, where she worked with a broad range of concerns from trauma to mood disorders. That experience shapes a pragmatic style focused on what people can do between sessions to feel more in control.

People can expect a calm, direct approach that blends talk with skill-building exercises. Jamie works in English and practices in Washington as an LMHC. To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step are used to match clients with a first session.

How sessions work

How Jamie's approaches translate to online work

Jamie often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify thought patterns that fuel anger and stress, then practices alternate responses. CBT is practical and problem-focused, which can help with workplace frustration, panic, or mood symptoms.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy techniques for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT skills teach breathing, grounding, and step-by-step responses for intense feelings. Client-centered work guides the conversation so goals and pacing come from the client rather than the therapist.

Finding the right approach is part of the first sessions. Jamie will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as skills are learned and situations change.

Session formats are not detailed here, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid commute time. It also lets people practice skills in the environments where their anger usually appears, while the therapist and client decide which approach and format make the most sense.
