About Jamie

Jamie Schwartz is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW-R) with two decades of experience addressing substance use and a broad range of mental health concerns.

Background and approach

She practices from a client-centered framework, bringing warmth, respect, and a steady presence to sessions while helping people manage issues such as depression, anxiety, addiction, eating concerns, bipolar mood challenges, and ADHD. Her background includes substantial work with trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, and career-related stress.

Schwartz blends practical and evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness with motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies to tailor care to each person’s priorities. She emphasizes collaboration, meeting clients where they are, and moving at a pace that feels manageable.

Jamie’s approach also attends to related concerns such as body image, codependency, panic and social anxiety, and substance-related disorders, drawing on 20 years of clinical practice in New York. Clients can expect an empathetic, nonjudgmental clinician who acknowledges the difficulty of seeking change and celebrates progress along the way.

Jamie accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English, offering multiple formats to fit different needs and schedules.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-centered therapy invites a respectful, person-focused way of working where the therapist listens closely and adapts to each person’s needs, helping them set goals and progress at a comfortable pace. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and many daily challenges. Mindfulness therapy offers tools for staying present and reducing reactivity, supporting work with stress, emotional regulation, and eating or impulse-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with clients to identify which combination of methods fits their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting strategies over time as progress and needs change.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives by offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats provide flexibility around work, travel, and caregiving obligations, and allow licensed professionals to support clients in practical, accessible ways across locations.
