Jamie OConnorLCSW

Jamie OConnor is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Wisconsin with 13 years of experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family challenges. Her approach is respectful and compassionate, and she aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person's situation.

She uses a mix of practical therapies to address everyday problems. That can mean working on unhelpful thinking patterns, building skills to manage strong emotions, or using mindfulness to stay grounded. Sessions are described in simple terms and are built around what the person needs right now.

Jamie has supported parents and people facing changes such as adoption and blended family adjustments. She also helps those dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy and body image concerns, and issues around addiction and ADHD. Her work includes communication and commitment issues, caregiver stress, and family of origin concerns.

Her style is collaborative and warm. She listens first, then helps set goals that feel doable. The focus is on small, steady steps that lead to meaningful change.

If someone is looking for help with pregnancy and childbirth-related stress or parenting strain, Jamie can be a resource to talk things through and develop coping strategies. Prospective clients are invited to start by completing the platform questionnaire and scheduling a session.

How Jamie’s approaches translate to online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that contribute to distress and practicing new ways of responding; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the person’s goals guide the work and the therapist offers support and reflection.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jamie listens to what matters most to the person, discusses different methods, and adjusts the plan as their needs and goals become clearer. People often combine elements from different approaches to fit their situation.

Because the biography does not specify session formats, confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into everyday life easier by reducing commute time and allowing meetings during a lunch break or between errands. It also makes it possible to maintain continuity when schedules change or when someone is managing parenting or caregiving duties. Licensed professionals adapt exercises, homework, and check-ins so progress can continue between sessions without assuming a single delivery method.
