About Jamie

Jamie Peckous is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with 12 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting concerns, career stress, and life transitions.

Jamie focuses on practical steps people can use in daily life. She uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, narrative methods, and solution-focused work. Sessions often look at what feels stuck and then try small, testable changes.

She has additional experience related to adoption and foster care, communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, mood disorders, postpartum depression, women’s issues, and young adult concerns. That background helps when challenges overlap across work and family life.

In sessions she listens to each person’s story and helps them identify strengths they can build on. She talks through specific strategies for managing symptoms and for rebuilding confidence after setbacks.

Jamie aims to make therapy practical and straightforward. Conversations are guided toward clear goals and short-term tools, while also allowing time to address deeper issues when needed.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Jamie commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. Motivational interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings and find personal reasons to try new actions. Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made. Confirm the specific session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Some formats use video for face-to-face conversation, while phone options can work when bandwidth or camera use is limited. The focus is on practical skills and plans that can be used between meetings to handle stress, parenting demands, grief, and workplace pressures.
