About Jamie

Jamie OConnor is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience helping people cope with anger, stress, anxiety, and relationship strain. She focuses on practical steps people can take now to reduce overwhelm and regain a sense of control. Jamie works with adults who want clearer communication, calmer reactions, and more satisfying connections.

She uses straightforward talk and concrete tools rather than jargon. Sessions are shaped around each person's goals and daily life.

Background and approach

Jamie listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people try different ways of responding. Her approach blends skills-based methods and deeper reflection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports making values-based choices even when emotions are strong. Jamie also draws on client-centered and mindfulness practices to build self-awareness and reduce reactivity. These methods support work on anger, grief, addictive behaviors, sleep and eating concerns, and self-esteem.

She pays attention to family of origin issues, attachment concerns, and blended family or parenting stress when relevant. In sessions people can expect clear suggestions, brief exercises, and space to talk about what matters most. Jamie emphasizes collaboration so clients leave with steps they can use between meetings.

Her aim is to help people handle life changes, improve communication, and feel more steady in day-to-day life.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them, and then take actions that match their values. This can be useful for anger, anxiety, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety or sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and mirrors concerns to build self-understanding and confidence.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, what has helped or not helped before, and adapt methods to fit daily life. Together they try techniques, review what works, and adjust the plan over time to match preferences and progress.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use body language and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick coping tips, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule while maintaining continuity of care with a licensed professional.
