About Jamie
Jamie Haidinger is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) and a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in New Hampshire with 15 years of experience. She helps people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, and other family-related difficulties. Jamie also works with people navigating life transitions like retirement, divorce, or caregiving responsibilities.
Jamie draws on three decades of work in hospitals, nursing homes, and rehabilitation settings earlier in her career. She brings practical skills from those roles into counseling sessions. Conversations tend to focus on identifying what feels most painful right now and finding steps that make everyday life easier.
Her approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered methods, and Motivational Interviewing. That mix is used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, clarify values and goals, and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others. Sessions move between talking, problem-solving, and setting small experiments to try between meetings.
Jamie holds a Master of Social Work from Boston University and a Certificate of Clinical Gerontology from Boston College. She also has a Bachelor of Social Work from Salem State University. Her clinical background includes work with medical and long-term care populations, and she applies that experience when people bring physical illness, caregiving burden, or end-of-life concerns into sessions.
People looking for practical support with family problems, parenting strain, communication issues, or grief often start by describing what feels out of balance at home. Jamie focuses on clear next steps and steady progress rather than abstract theory.
How sessions work
How Jamie uses clinical approaches in online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small actions toward those values despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes where avoiding feelings has become limiting.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses practical exercises to change patterns that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with difficult situations.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and shift the emotional patterns that underlie relationship strain. It can help when communication problems, intimacy issues, or grief feel stuck.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jamie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adapts what she practices based on the issues presented and the pace the client prefers.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people bring real-life situations from home into conversation without promising any particular delivery method.
