About Jamie

Jamie Ray is a licensed clinician who draws on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside acceptance and mindfulness-informed methods to help clients navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, and mood concerns.

Background and approach

With LCMHC and LCPC credentials, she blends structured, skills-based work with a warm, client-centered stance so people can practice new ways of thinking and coping while feeling heard. Over a decade of clinical work in behavioral health informs her approach to issues such as depression, addiction, sleep disruption, grief, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns.

She also addresses career transitions, parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and a range of additional areas including adoption and foster care, chronic illness, and blended family dynamics. Jamie emphasizes collaboration and practical strategies that can be applied day to day.

Clients can expect an atmosphere that encourages openness and exploration without judgment, where building confidence and motivation is part of the process. Licensed in Montana, she uses evidence-informed tools to support coping with life changes and to strengthen emotional regulation and communication.

Applying CBT and Acceptance-Based Tools Online

Jamie integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing concrete skills to change behavior and ease symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and sleep disruption. ACT emphasizes accepting difficult internal experiences while clarifying values and taking committed action toward meaningful goals, which can help with motivation, coping with life changes, and chronic stress.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Jamie partners with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then adapts techniques so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single method. This makes it easier to try approaches and refine them over time based on what is most helpful.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. Those options let people practice skills between meetings, fit therapy into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible, while working with licensed professionals who tailor treatment to each client’s situation.
