About Jamey

Jamey Ivey is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) in Montana with more than 21 years of clinical experience. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to help people develop practical coping strategies for stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and intimacy-related concerns.

Background and approach

Jamey emphasizes collaborating with clients to identify strengths and build skills that support lasting change. Her work addresses a wide range of related challenges including attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, communication problems, and struggles with isolation or emptiness.

She also supports people navigating divorce or separation, substance-related concerns, domestic violence recovery, hoarding, impulsivity, and family conflict. Jamey approaches each situation with respect for the client's story and a focus on skill-building and empowerment.

Clients can expect a therapist who encourages courage and practical problem solving while honoring individual resilience. She frames therapy as a partnership that aims to expand options, reduce distress, and strengthen day-to-day functioning using evidence-informed techniques familiar from CBT and DBT.

Integrating CBT and DBT into Online Care

Jamey uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical, goal-oriented skills for managing mood and behaviors. DBT complements that work by teaching emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship challenges.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Jamey will collaborate with each person to determine whether CBT, DBT, or a blend of techniques best matches their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for scheduling and participation. These formats make it easier to access consistent support while balancing work, caregiving, or health-related limits, and they allow skill practice and check-ins between live meetings.
