About Jamie
Jamie Clausen is a Washington LMHC with ten years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, anxiety, and related concerns. She also helps people who are dealing with family and communication issues and parenting strain.
She uses a client-centered approach that keeps the person's goals and preferences in focus. That means conversations start with what matters most to the individual and move at a practical pace. Jamie borrows tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and habits.
Dialectical behavior therapy skills appear when emotions feel overwhelming or impulsive behavior is a problem. Mindfulness practices are used to help people notice stress and calm physical reactions. Jamie also uses narrative-style techniques to help people reframe difficult experiences and make sense of life changes.
Sessions are straightforward and geared toward real life. Jamie offers concrete strategies for sleep, eating, parenting stress, and mood swings. She pays attention to communication patterns people bring from their family roles and helps them practice different ways of speaking and setting limits.
Her background in community mental health means she has worked across a range of settings and with many presentations. People meet a clinician who focuses on clear tools, steady support, and helping them manage daily demands while working through longer term concerns.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Jamie combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in online sessions. Client-centered work means conversations begin with what matters most to the person and the therapist follows the client's lead. CBT brings focused tools to identify thought patterns and set small behavior changes that reduce anxiety or depression.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) strategies for people who struggle with intense emotions or impulsive actions. DBT offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed together.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That choice is revisited as needs change so therapy stays practical and relevant.
