Background and approach
That hands-on history shapes how she notices safety, loss, and relationships in a person’s life. She has spent years supporting people affected by trauma and abuse, including those who have experienced sexual assault and military-related stress. Jaynie also focuses on concerns such as panic attacks, postpartum depression, body image, and survivor guilt.
She listens for how past losses or abandonment issues show up now. In session she aims to meet people where they are and build on their strengths. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people reduce symptoms and handle stressful moments more effectively.
Sessions focus on clear skills and steady progress rather than jargon. Outside of clinical work Jaynie has worked with multidisciplinary teams and with victims of violent crime. She values cultural humility and tries to be an ally in her work.
When not working she enjoys gardening, traveling, sporting events, and time with her daughter and dogs.
How evidence-based techniques work online
Jaynie often uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and steady progress. Cognitive strategies help people notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns that fuel anxiety and depression. These approaches teach practical tools for calm, planning, and problem solving that can be practiced between sessions.Trauma-informed methods focus on safety, pacing, and working through difficult memories at a manageable speed. These approaches help people reduce the intensity of trauma reactions and build coping skills for triggers and flashbacks.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jaynie will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people work in real time with face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging provide short check-ins, moment-to-moment support, and flexibility to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to access regular care while balancing work, family, or school.
