The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes consistent weekly work simpler for people juggling parenting, work, or school. Jamie can help shape the practical side of therapy so it fits the client's routine and goals.
