About Jamie

Jamie Atwood is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with sixteen years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, self-esteem, parenting, and coping with life changes. Jamie aims to make the first step feel manageable and supportive for people seeking change.

She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space for clients to talk about what matters most. Conversations focus on real situations and daily challenges rather than clinical jargon.

Background and approach

Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-oriented so people can try new ways of handling stress and conflict. Jamie uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. She works with clients to experiment with small changes and to build skills that fit their routines.

This includes practicing practical strategies between sessions to reinforce progress. Her work also addresses codependency, guilt and shame, money and financial stress, and finding purpose. Jamie supports women and young adults navigating self-love, confidence, and relationship patterns.

She pays attention to the life demands that make parenting and family roles stressful. People often come to her for straightforward, usable strategies when life feels overwhelming. She helps make plans that fit daily life and adjusts approaches to what each person needs.

The goal is steady, realistic steps toward feeling more capable and balanced.

Online support

CBT-informed care for parenting and family stress online

Jamie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people see how thoughts and actions affect feelings and behavior. CBT sessions focus on practical exercises, breaking problems into small steps, and trying out new responses to reduce anxiety and improve interactions.

Therapy is collaborative - the person and Jamie decide together which approaches to try. She will tailor tools and homework to your goals, preferences, and daily routines so the plan fits your life and parenting responsibilities.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a full-session conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send brief updates, try quick skills between sessions, or check in when schedules are tight.

These options make it easier to fit therapy around family life, work, and caregiving. Jamie will help pick the mix of formats that best supports your goals and day-to-day needs.
