About Jamie
Jamie OConnor is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She focuses on building a respectful, compassionate space so people can talk through what feels most urgent to them. Jamie emphasizes practical steps and steady support rather than quick fixes.
She tailors conversations and treatment to meet each person's needs. That might mean working on relationship and communication problems, parenting strain, or addictive patterns. Jamie also helps people facing grief, trauma and abuse, body image concerns, and codependency. She pays attention to issues that grow out of family history, such as abandonment or attachment questions.
Jamie uses several approaches to guide sessions, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, psychodynamic ideas, and client-centered work. She mixes these methods to fit goals like improving sleep, managing anger, or navigating career stress. Sessions move at a practical pace and focus on small, doable changes.
People who come for help often want tools they can use right away. Jamie offers skills for coping with intense feelings and for improving everyday routines. She works with clients on clear steps to reduce overwhelm and increase confidence.
Jamie practices in Wisconsin and speaks English. She aims to empower people to make meaningful changes and to find clearer ways of relating to themselves and others.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and codependency patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and uses practical exercises to change them, which is useful for stress, sleep issues, and anger. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting the person's own pace and insights, which can be helpful for relationship, grief, and self-esteem concerns.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they adapt methods and try things that fit the client's life and hopes for change.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn't needed, and remove travel time so clients can use breaks more effectively. Licensed professionals can offer practical tools, homework, and guided exercises through remote sessions to support steady progress.
