Hi! My name is Jamie and I've been a counselor for about a decade now. I specialize in toxic and abusive relationships. That could be with parents, a romantic partner, or friendships. I’m trained in quite a few therapies (cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT is one of them) but the most important thing is finding something that works for you. You’re an individual, so counseling will be tailored to what your specific needs are-and maybe you don't know what you want/need right now because you've never been to counseling! That's fine, too! The relationship between counselor and individual is key. It’s so important to have a trusting bond so I will spend time getting to know you, as well as help. I believe everyone has the power to promote change within themselves but sometimes we all need a little guidance. What an awesome step you’ve made. I know it took courage! I offer a non-judgmental atmosphere, because we're all people and we all have pasts. A little about me: I practice yoga and Reiki healing. I like spending my days with my partner and our two boys, reading, and crocheting (very therapeutic!). I also enjoy hiking and traveling. I can't wait to get to know more about you and help you where you are in your journey.

Hello! I am glad you are here. You have come to my page because there is some type of struggle in your life right now. The search for support is a brave step and an important step. I am here to help you navigate this part of your journey by supporting you along the way. Here is a little more information about me: I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor and I have been in the helping profession in one way or another for more than nine years. My first professional career was as an Elementary teacher and then I moved into Middle School/High School counseling, and as a Social Emotional Counselor for the alternative education program. I currently supervise licensed professionals for the same school district. Through my school-work career, I have had opportunities to work with people of all ages. I have the unique experience of seeing firsthand how a crisis, grief, interpersonal conflict, trauma, and family conflict can impact each person in the family in a different way. When we work together I hope to build a meaningful connection, so that the work you do is specific to your needs and your growth. My approach may vary depending on what you need and what you're hoping to gain. Primarily I focus on a client-centered approach in which unconditional regard to your care is key. I may also utilize tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Reality Therapy, Cognitive- Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered therapy. Some of the tools from those approaches help YOU empower YOU! My goal as your professional counselor is to provide a safe and ethical space for you to explore, work through, and grow emotionally. I consider myself laid back, non-judgmental, and a good perspective taker. I hope that I may help you during this time in your life.

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Danbury due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • With therapists: $100-300
  • With a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Danbury may not take health insurance, some in the state of Texas may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Texas you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail.

Is therapy worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice.

Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
