About Jamie

Jamie OConnor is a licensed social worker who draws on 13 years of clinical experience to help people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and ADHD-related concerns. She uses a collaborative, person-focused stance to tailor conversations and treatment plans so they fit each client's priorities and life context.

Background and approach

Her background includes work with a broad range of issues such as parenting and family conflict, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, and concerns about self-esteem and intimacy. Jamie emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in her approach and adapts techniques from evidence-informed methods to match a client’s goals.

She integrates strategies for coping with life changes and career stress alongside work on attachment and communication patterns, addressing topics from body image and eating or sleeping difficulties to codependency and control issues.

Located in Wisconsin and credentialed as an LCSW, she welcomes clients who prefer sessions via video, phone, chat, or messaging and accepts international clients when appropriate.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that meet you where you are

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then identify values-guided actions to build a more meaningful life; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering concrete strategies for issues like depression, worry, and sleep or eating concerns. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes a respectful, empathetic therapeutic relationship that lets clients lead the pace and focus of conversations while the therapist provides support and understanding.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each client to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the specific challenges they bring, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to the person rather than applying a single fixed method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into a busy schedule or to access help from different locations. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver interactive therapeutic tools, homework, and ongoing support while accommodating varying communication styles and logistical needs.
