About Jamie

Jamie Finkelstein is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Colorado with 11 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, addiction, ADHD, and stress. She also supports people facing career questions, parenting strain, sleep problems, and identity issues related to LGBT experiences.

Jamie uses emotionally focused work alongside cognitive and behavioral tools to make emotions easier to name and understand. Sessions tend to focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. She listens for recurring patterns, how feelings affect actions, and practical steps a person can try between sessions.

Her clinical toolkit includes Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). She draws from those methods to help with regulation skills, clearer communication, and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Jamie pays particular attention to attachment and abandonment concerns, adoption and foster care issues, blended family strain, and body image and caregiver stress. She also supports people coping with chronic illness, cancer, codependency, and recovery from abuse.

People who meet with her typically leave with concrete strategies and a clearer sense of what to try next. To get started, clients follow the site's process to match and book an initial session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Jamie combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in online sessions. EFT focuses on naming feelings and tracking how those emotions shape patterns in relationships and behavior. ACT helps people notice thoughts and choose meaningful actions even when emotions are difficult. CBT offers concrete exercises to change unhelpful thinking and to build coping skills.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and which exercises to try between sessions.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it simpler to practice skills in everyday settings and to bring real-life examples into the conversation.
