About Jamie
Jamie Haidinger is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of practice in mental health. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strains, and coping with life changes. Jamie also addresses addiction, trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, and career-related stress.
Jamie draws on many years of earlier work in hospitals, nursing homes, and rehab centers where she provided supportive counseling, crisis intervention, and coaching. That background shapes a practical, down-to-earth way of working. Sessions tend to look at what is causing most pain now and which changes could bring relief.
Her clinical approaches include Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing. These approaches are used to help people name difficult emotions, shift unhelpful patterns, and make decisions that match their values.
Jamie’s training includes a Master of Social Work from Boston University and a Certificate of Clinical Gerontology from Boston College, along with a Bachelor of Social Work from Salem State University. She holds licensure in multiple states, including New Hampshire where she practices.
People often work with Jamie to reduce anxiety, manage grief, repair communication problems, handle caregiving or chronic illness stress, and make practical plans after major life changes. To begin, she asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on spotting and naming core emotions and on changing negative interaction patterns that keep people stuck; it is often used when relationship and attachment issues are central. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take action even when hard feelings are present, which can be useful for anxiety or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions to reduce unhelpful thinking and build practical skills.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit best based on goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as needs change and progress is assessed together.
The therapist biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people meet with licensed professionals from their home community while keeping appointments more practical around work, caregiving, or medical schedules.
