I can’t recommend Jamie enough. She is kind, nurturing and encouraging but is also insightful. She isn’t afraid to challenge you and give her honest opinion. She is an active listener and offers a concrete approach to reaching your goals. Her knowledge and experience coupled with her genuine kindness makes for an amazing therapist. Her assistant Rebecca is also extremely responsive and helpful.

I enjoyed my 1st video visit, I felt very comfortable on my journey to be helped and healed on a deeper level. I'm excited and more open to take gentle care of myself.

The last year has been a nightmare for me and I am so thankful that I started working with Jamie. She has already helped me in so many ways. She is a great listener and has helped me increase my confidence at work and in my personal life.
Jamie is warm, kind and so helpful. I have only been working with her for a short time but I look forward to seeing her weekly and continuing our work together.

I have been struggling with anxiety for many years. Jamie has helped me develop skills, she has helped me feel safe to talk and embrace many of my daily struggles. I feel less scared about life since I started therapy with Jamie.
Before I started therapy I had a lot of anxiety about moving to New York City. Starting a new life was very scary. There were a lot of things that I had to do and I had not a single person I could talk with about my problems. I am so happy that I started working with Jamie. She has helped me feel better about moving and happier.

I sent my teen to see Jamie two years ago and I've seen such a change in him. He has developed social skills and has made more friends. He is smiling a lot more and engaging in family activities. Jamie has helped our family so much and I'm so happy with our family therapy sessions and with his individual therapy appointments. I did not know how much therapy can help until I started participating in my child's treatment.
I have been having a very hard time deciding what college I want to attend next year. Junior year in high school is beyond stressful. I was having panic attacks and started isolating. I needed help and someone to talk to about all the stuff that I had going on between school, sports, dance and my social life. Jamie helped me manage my anxiety and improve my self-esteem. She is creative and fun to work with. I have a great time working with her.

My partner and I have been attending couples therapy sessions with Jamie and I have seen such a great change in our relationship. We are better able to communicate and I feel like we are finally on the same page. At first we were hesitant to go to therapy, but we are so happy that we decided to work with Jamie. My partner and I now go on routine date nights and continue to work on reconnecting and enjoying each others company.

I started working with Jamie a couple years ago doing face to face therapy. I transitioned to remote video sessions. My schedule is really busy. I have to juggle traveling internationally for work, being a dad to my kids, a loving husband to my beautiful wife, son, friend, etc. I have many roles to play, it becomes overwhelming. I felt alone for much of my life and Jamie has helped me feel not that anymore. I feel more creative, open to life and safer to think outside the box.
I am a successful international artist who has worked on many well known projects. Throughout the years I have found it harder to connect and talk to people. I see the world in an abstract way, Jaime makes me feel safe to express my vulnerable thoughts. She has helped me come out of my shell and feel significantly less rejected or judged by society in many ways. I am so thankful to have her in my life as a support.

Jamie is a great therapist. She’s insightful, trustworthy, and compassionate. She has helped me through many hard times and into happy times.
I hold a high level position in a very stressful job environment. My anxiety and depression has caused me a lot of stress. I did not know how to handle what was going on in my life and needed an outlet. I started working with J'aime a few years ago and she has helped me with my career, relationships and cope with depression and manage my anxiety.
