About Jamielyn

Jamielyn "Jamie" Yates is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. Jamie also lists codependency and communication problems among the issues she addresses.

Jamie uses practical, skills-based approaches in sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns. She uses dialectical behavior strategies to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Mindfulness and solution-focused work also appear in her practice to help people notice patterns and try small changes.

In a session she listens and helps clients name the behaviors that once protected them but now cause problems. She frames those patterns as learned responses that can be adjusted. Conversations include concrete steps and practice tasks rather than only talking about feelings.

Jamie aims to help people make day-to-day changes that improve relationships and functioning. Examples include clearer communication, stronger boundaries, and routine skills for managing anxiety or cravings. She talks through what gets in the way of a life someone wants and works with them on realistic next steps.

Her clinical background includes work with mood and personality concerns and addiction-related issues. Jamie works in English and sees clients in Missouri. If you are unsure whether she fits your needs, review her online therapy options and the matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How sessions work

How Jamie applies evidence-based methods online

Jamie commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT focuses on practical exercises and homework that target anxiety, low mood, and patterns that maintain distress. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) provides specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills help when feelings feel overwhelming or when communication repeatedly breaks down.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jamie will collaborate with each person to consider goals, day-to-day challenges, and which methods fit best. That means trying approaches, tracking what helps, and adjusting techniques together rather than sticking to one fixed plan.

The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats for online work. Please confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are conducted. Many people find online sessions useful for fitting work on a lunch break, keeping sessions shorter for quick check-ins, or avoiding travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to practice skills between meetings and to bring real-life examples into conversation.
