About Jamielyn
Jamielyn 'Jamie' Yates is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri who helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression, and addiction concerns. She writes and talks plainly with clients to make steps feel manageable. Jamie focuses on practical change rather than jargon-filled sessions.
She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Mindfulness and solution-focused work are also part of her approach when they fit a person's needs.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to teach skills that can be used between meetings. Jamie has five years of experience in counseling. She has worked with people dealing with loneliness, low self-esteem, codependency, communication problems, and grief around end-of-life situations.
Phobias are among the concerns she lists as part of her focus areas. In sessions she helps people identify patterns that once kept them safe but now cause problems. The work often includes breaking big problems into small steps, practicing coping skills, and trying new ways to react to difficult thoughts or triggers.
Progress is tracked by changes in daily routines and how a person handles stress. Her style is direct and nonjudgmental. Clients can expect clear skills, short-term goals when useful, and a balance of practical strategies with space to talk through painful feelings.
Jamie supports people as they build a life that feels more workable and meaningful.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include homework between meetings, like tracking thoughts or trying small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety or avoidant habits.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on teaching practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. In remote sessions these skills can be taught through guided practice, real-time coaching via chat or phone, and short check-ins to reinforce new coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means adjusting techniques over time and combining approaches when helpful so the plan fits how a person wants to live.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins or ongoing skill coaching. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to practice skills between sessions.
