About Jamie
Jamie Peckous is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical, goal-oriented support. She draws on 12 years of experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and parenting concerns. She believes people know their own stories and brings that perspective into sessions.

Background and approach
She also uses Narrative and Solution-Focused methods to help people reframe experiences and set clear next steps. These tools are chosen to match what the client needs in the moment. Common topics she addresses include coping with life changes, postpartum mood concerns, adoption and foster care questions, communication problems, guilt and shame, and isolation.
She also supports people navigating career decisions and young adult transitions. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Online approaches that fit your goals
Jamie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what matters to them and find the internal motivation to try new steps.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and pick or blend methods that feel most useful. That way the plan matches what a person actually wants to change and how they prefer to work.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for deeper therapeutic conversations, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quicker check-in, and text messaging supports brief updates or ongoing encouragement. These options make scheduling easier and let people choose what fits their day.
