How Jaime Uses Evidence-Based Methods Online
Jaime combines Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people make manageable changes. Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping someone clarify their own reasons to change and build internal motivation. It can be useful for people who feel stuck or uncertain about taking the next step.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with more useful patterns. This approach is often used for anxiety, depressive symptoms, and stress management and includes practical exercises to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jaime partners with each person to decide which techniques to try first based on goals, preferences, and how they respond. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as needed so the work stays relevant and doable.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove the need to travel to appointments. Licensed professionals can use these formats to help people practice skills, set goals, and track small changes over time. -
