Jamie Mayr
Hello there. I’m grateful you came across my page. I have a wide range of experience, working in residential treatment centers, private practices, schools, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, prisons, and have significant experience working with veterans in both an inpatient and outpatient setting.
Additionally, I have specialized training in working with those who struggle with emotion regulation, distress tolerance, as well as those who engage in self-harm behaviors.
I work with clients across the lifespan, as a great deal of my graduate training was with children, adolescents, and families. I have been trained in several approaches to treat a variety of concerns, but I most enjoy working with trauma and PTSD. Additionally, I have specialized training in working with those who struggle with emotion regulation, distress tolerance, as well as those who engage in self-harm behaviors.
First session
In therapy sessions, I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and safe environment, which I believe is a prerequisite for healing. I see the therapeutic relationship as a partnership, as you are the expert of yourself (whether you believe that yet or not)! My role is to facilitate deeper insight and the lessening of suffering or discomfort. From there, we will create an individualized plan of care.
Strengths
I think my biggest strengths are my empathy, my authenticity, and my ability to ask questions to facilitate deeper insight.
Treatment methods
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I've practiced this treatment in a variety of settings. In my practice, we can utilize individual DBT protocol or bring in skills from DBT as needed.
EMDR
I've been practicing EMDR for almost 15 years now and find it to be transformative in treating trauma as well as a variety of other presenting concerns.
