About Jamie
Jamie Gordon is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Minnesota with ten years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and self-esteem concerns, depression, trauma, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, bipolar mood issues, ADHD, and other life changes.
She uses straightforward, skills-based methods in sessions. Conversations focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits, testing small behavioral changes, and learning concrete coping tools. Sessions move at a practical pace with clear steps to try between meetings.
Jamie draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered and mindfulness approaches. That means she pays attention to what a person is experiencing now, listens without judgment, and works on changing thoughts and actions that get in the way of daily functioning.
She also uses DBT-informed skills for emotion regulation and motivational interviewing techniques to support change when substance use or motivation is a concern. Mindfulness exercises are introduced as simple practices for stress, sleep, and impulse control.
Jamie frames therapy as collaborative problem solving. She helps people set realistic goals, track small gains, and adjust strategies that aren’t working. The focus is on practical work that fits into everyday life and moves toward clearer routines, better coping, and improved mood.
How Jamie uses structured approaches in online sessions
Jamie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of responding. CBT sessions often include setting clear goals, practicing small behavioral experiments, and reviewing what worked between meetings.She also uses client-centered techniques that focus on listening and reflecting to help someone clarify goals and priorities. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are offered to teach concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when strong emotions or impulsivity are an issue.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying CBT tools for thought patterns, adding DBT skills for emotion control, or using motivational interviewing if substance use or readiness for change is a concern.
Confirm the exact session formats and logistics before booking, as options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-in sessions during a break, or letting someone join without being on camera. Discussing practical needs up front helps match session length and homework to everyday life.
