About Jamie
Jamie Haidinger is a warm, nurturing clinician who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and major life changes. She draws on a long career in medical and rehabilitation settings to offer steady, practical support when life feels overwhelming. Jamie listens first and helps people move at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
She has 15 years in licensed clinical social work practice and decades of additional counseling and coaching experience in hospitals, nursing homes, and rehab centers. Jamie holds a Master of Social Work degree from Boston University and a Certificate of Clinical Gerontology from Boston College, and she is licensed as an LICSW and an LCSW in multiple New England states. These experiences inform a grounded approach to common concerns like depression, relationship pain, caregiving stress, and coping with illness.
In sessions, Jamie focuses on what the person wants to change. She uses clear tools and gentle conversation to identify sources of pain and practical next steps. She combines acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive-behavioral strategies and emotionally focused listening to help people handle emotions and make choices that match their values.
People often seek her help for parenting strain, compassion fatigue, intimacy questions, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster recovery. She also supports those facing end-of-life issues, chronic illness, and caregiver burdens.
Her style is caring and encouraging, with an emphasis on steady progress rather than dramatic change. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the available times.
How therapy approaches guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters most to a person and taking small, values-based actions even when feelings are difficult. It can help with anxiety, grief, and direction after big life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns that feed depression or stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) emphasizes understanding and working with strong emotions to improve relationships and repair connection.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and comfort level. Clients and the therapist can try strategies, check what helps, and adjust the plan together over time.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during workday breaks. It can also make it simpler to continue support during recovery from a natural or human-caused disaster when in-person options are limited. Ask about the available session options when you schedule to pick a format that suits your routine and needs.
