Background and approach
If someone feels overwhelmed or stuck, she prioritizes clear goals and small, doable changes. Jaime uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also works with cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors.
Mindfulness skills and emotion regulation strategies are folded into sessions to help manage intense feelings. For clients with trauma histories, Jaime incorporates approaches suited to processing painful memories and reducing their impact on daily life. She describes her work as collaborative - the client and therapist decide on next steps together.
Sessions aim to build insight, practical skills, and more stable ways of relating to self and others. Her style is candid but warm. Jaime focuses on realistic goals and honest conversations so people can notice progress and keep moving forward.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Jaime commonly uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and connections. This helps people who struggle with trust, closeness, or repeating relationship problems learn new ways to relate and feel steadier.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Clients learn practical tools to shift patterns that keep them stuck. When trauma is present, elements of EMDR-informed processing and mindfulness practices can be woven in to reduce the intensity of painful memories and build emotion management skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jaime collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences and adjusts the plan as progress is made. Therapy is a shared process where priorities and pacing come from the client-therapist conversation.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options let people fit sessions into busy schedules, check in between meetings with shorter messages, or choose a format that uses less bandwidth. The range of formats aims to make it easier to keep therapy consistent while adapting to everyday life.
