About Jamie
Jamie Brandmair is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience helping people through hard times. She practices in Tennessee and offers online work for people living elsewhere. Jamie focuses on practical steps that fit daily life and on creating a calm, steady space to talk about hard things.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She listens first, then helps clients set small, achievable goals. Jamie uses tools from cognitive behavioral work and narrative approaches to change unhelpful patterns and make sense of past events.
Background and approach
Jamie also brings trauma-informed care into sessions, including EMDR methods when appropriate. That work is aimed at easing intense memories and reducing their impact on day-to-day functioning. Motivational interviewing techniques are used when people want to make concrete changes but feel stuck.
Parents often come to Jamie for help with stress, sleep struggles, managing anger, and juggling career and caregiving demands. She helps people work through parenting challenges and the toll of compassion fatigue without assuming a single right answer for every family. Clients describe a collaborative style that balances problem-solving and emotional processing.
Jamie draws on experience from outpatient, inpatient, school-based, detention, and in-home settings to tailor her approach. She supports people across a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, ADHD, grief, and relationship struggles. Sessions are available in English and Jamie accepts international clients.
She asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire to match needs and then schedules sessions based on mutual availability.

How chosen approaches shape online care
Client-centered work focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It starts with listening and building a plan that matches personal values and daily life. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical tools to change them, useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating issues.EMDR is a trauma-informed technique that can reduce the intensity of painful memories. In online sessions this often means pacing the work carefully and using structured exercises to manage strong emotions. Jamie combines these approaches based on what the client needs and prefers, and she reviews options together so people understand the plan before trying a new method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and more in-depth conversation. Phone calls can be easier when video is distracting or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone wants written reflections they can revisit later. Overall, online therapy offers flexibility to fit sessions into busy schedules while still using therapeutic skills that have helped many people.
