About Jamie

Dr. Jamie Spohn centers her work in cognitive behavioral approaches, drawing on 11 years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and a range of life adjustments.

Background and approach

As an MD Psychologist (MD Psychologist 05590), she integrates evidence-informed strategies with a practical, strength-focused outlook to help clients build coping skills and address challenges such as parenting concerns, ADHD, grief, and relationship tensions.

Her manner balances empathy with clear, direct guidance; she encourages clients to increase independence while also acknowledging individual circumstances like chronic illness, traumatic brain injury, or caregiver stress. Dr.

Spohn blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with motivational and psychodynamic ideas when appropriate, tailoring interventions to each person’s needs and inviting ongoing feedback. She practices in Maryland and conducts sessions in English.

Dr. Spohn is attentive to real-world constraints and offers a structured approach that emphasizes problem solving, self-compassion, and practical change.

Prospective clients are asked to follow the intake steps to begin therapy and can expect professional boundaries around response timing and session formats as described during onboarding.

Applying CBT and Motivational Interviewing to Online Care

Dr. Spohn commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, panic, and adjustment after injury or illness. Motivational interviewing is also part of her toolkit and focuses on exploring ambivalence and supporting intentional change when motivation feels uncertain. Psychodynamic ideas may be woven in to understand underlying patterns when clinically appropriate.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative; Dr. Spohn will work with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and life context. She emphasizes a strengths-based, problem-solving orientation and invites feedback so the plan can be adjusted over time to better fit what a client needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity during life transitions. These formats allow for ongoing support, skill practice between sessions, and a range of communication styles to suit different needs and comfort levels.
