About Jamie

Jamie Finkelstein is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 11 years of experience practicing in Colorado. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, addictions, grief, parenting strain, and LGBTQ concerns. Jamie focuses on practical ways to manage strong emotions and day-to-day challenges.

She uses clear, straightforward methods to help people reduce reactivity and improve relationships. Sessions mix skills training with talking through difficult moments. Jamie draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete tools for managing upsetting thoughts and impulses.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy also informs her work by helping clients notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. Emotionally-Focused and Client-Centered approaches guide how she listens and responds, ensuring conversations stay focused on the client’s priorities. These methods are used to address issues like intimacy struggles, career stress, sleep problems, and identity questions.

Jamie also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, chronic illness, caregiver stress, adoption and attachment concerns, and codependency. She helps people weigh options, set boundaries, and practice new ways of communicating. Her style emphasizes steady problem-solving and learning skills that fit into everyday life.

Practical details are straightforward: sessions vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted. To begin, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Jamie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT gives clear exercises and out-of-session practice that translate well to remote work, such as thought records and behavioral experiments.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT provides concrete skills for managing intense feelings, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating discomfort without acting on impulse.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jamie collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and day-to-day realities. That may mean prioritizing skills training one week and values-based work the next so therapy stays practical and relevant.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to schedule sessions around work and family commitments, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use tools and worksheets between meetings. Licensed professionals can tailor the mix of conversation and skill practice so therapy fits into a busy life rather than adding another burden.
