About Jamie
Jamie Ray is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana with 10 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, career concerns, and motivation or self-esteem struggles. Jamie also supports people facing life changes, grief, addiction, sleep problems, parenting strain, and intimacy-related issues.
She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy as one of her main approaches, alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, and mindfulness practices. In sessions she focuses on emotions, patterns in relationships, and the day-to-day habits that keep problems stuck. She talks through feelings and reactions, and helps clients notice what matters most to them.
Jamie’s work is practical and direct. She uses concrete exercises, mindfulness tools, and ways of tracking thoughts and behaviors. When trauma or dissociation are present she moves carefully and at a pace the person can tolerate. For people dealing with addiction or compassion fatigue she combines motivational interviewing ideas with coping skills to support steadier choices.
Her background includes long-term roles in community mental health and related settings, which shaped her experience with grief, caregiver stress, first responder issues, and adoption or foster care concerns. She values clear goals and measurable steps toward better daily functioning.

How Jamie uses EFT, ACT, and CBT online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotional patterns and how those feelings shape relationships and reactions. It helps people name hard-to-identify emotions and notice how those emotions drive behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action, while accepting uncomfortable thoughts rather than fighting them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns with practical exercises and tracking techniques.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jamie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision is based on what the person wants to change, their daily life demands, and how they respond during early sessions.
Confirm the session formats directly before booking, as specific online options are not listed here. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, require less travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Other practical benefits include being able to schedule sessions around work or caregiving duties and using mindfulness or behavioral exercises between meetings to reinforce progress.
