About Jamie

Jamie Atwood is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 16 years of experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress and anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, and challenges around self-esteem and motivation.

Background and approach

Her work also addresses parenting concerns and life transitions, alongside related themes such as codependency, guilt and shame, money and financial issues, and discovering life purpose. Jamie cultivates an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for change, while also attending to emotional healing and personal values. Clients looking for an approach that balances actionable skills with empathetic support may find her style well suited to their goals.

Practical therapies for online life and relationships



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a core part of her practice and centers on noticing and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is often used to address anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and relationship thinking that gets in the way of daily functioning. Jamie applies these techniques in ways that translate well to remote sessions, using focused exercises and behavioral experiments clients can try between meetings.

Alongside CBT, her approach emphasizes collaborative planning: she works with clients to choose which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life situation. That exploration happens together so therapy remains tailored and flexible rather than one-size-fits-all. Clients are invited to voice what feels most useful so adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make scheduling easier and support more consistent check-ins. These options allow for practical skills work, real-time coaching, and brief check-ins that complement longer sessions, offering accessibility and adaptability to busy or changing schedules.
