Jaymi Dormaier, LMSW

Psychotherapist
MI
If you're looking for a therapist who will tell it like it is while helping you laugh through the hard stuff, you're in the right place. I work well with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of what comes next. Whether you're navigating a complicated relationship with your mom, figuring out life as someone who doesn't want kids, or trying to untangle anxiety and past trauma, you don't have to do it alone. Therapy with me is direct, collaborative, and focused on helping you get clear on what you want and how to get there. I'm here to help you figure out what's next and how to get there. My approach is active, honest, and rooted in real conversation. I don’t just sit and nod. I show up with you, ask meaningful questions, and help you make sense of the things that feel overwhelming or unclear. I pull from evidence-based practices like cognitive-behavioral therapy and trauma-informed care, but I always tailor my approach to what actually works for you. Whether that means building coping tools, setting boundaries, or processing the past, we’ll focus on your goals and move at a pace that feels manageable. Progress doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to feel like movement. I’ll be with you every step of the way. You're the one people count on. You hold it together, get things done, and rarely ask for help, but lately it’s been too much. Maybe you’re burned out, anxious, stuck in old patterns, or trying to make peace with a past that still affects you. I work with people who are self-aware, high functioning, and exhausted from carrying it all. Many are navigating complicated family dynamics, choosing a life path that doesn’t match the norm, or trying to figure out what they truly want. In therapy, we’ll make space for your truth, sort through what’s working and what isn’t, and build tools that help you move through life with more clarity, boundaries, and peace.

What should a new client know about working with you?

You can expect me to be real with you. I’m direct, engaged, and not afraid to name what’s getting in your way, but I’ll always do it with care and respect. I show up fully in sessions and invite you to do the same. I listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and offer honest feedback to help you gain insight and make meaningful progress. If something feels heavy or confusing, I’ll slow things down and help you make sense of it at your pace. Whether we are working through something from your past or figuring out how to set a boundary in real time, I am here as a steady and supportive partner in the process. I became a therapist because I have always been drawn to the moments people usually keep to themselves. The raw, real, complicated parts of life are where I believe healing begins. During my training and early work, I was consistently trusted with clients' most painful and private stories. That trust shaped my commitment to showing up fully, listening deeply, and never offering one-size-fits-all answers. What keeps me motivated is seeing people reclaim their voice, set boundaries they never thought they could, or finally feel at home in their own lives. That kind of growth is powerful, and I am honored to be part of it. Therapy works best when it is a partnership. We will talk about what you want to get out of this process and set goals that feel meaningful to you. That might mean managing anxiety, improving relationships, healing from trauma, or getting clear on what you want next in life. As you grow and gain insight, your goals might shift, and that is completely normal. We will revisit them regularly to make sure we are staying focused on what matters most to you. I will help you break things down, build tools that work for your life, and stay committed to the changes you want to make, even when it feels hard.
