Thank you for your interest in my practice!

As a counselor, I am honored to walk with my clients through change, whether that means learning more about who they are and how they operate or making big-picture shifts in how they connect with the world. A cornerstone of my approach is working with the body's sensation-level responses that are designed to keep us safe. To this end, I draw from mind­–body approaches and use EMDR and Somatic Experiencing to help clients achieve better regulation and balance in their lives.

I bring over 15 years of experience in working with clients on concerns related to anxiety, depression, life transitions, and trauma. I am affirming of LGBTQIA2S+ clients and work with same-sex couples.

I am a Registered Yoga Teacher and am eager to share the guidance and gifts of yoga with my clients, whether during talk therapy, in one-on-one yoga instruction, or by incorporating yoga practice into therapy sessions. While my yoga training informs my therapeutic approach, this does not mean that you have to do yoga when you come to see me–that will be your choice to make as we work together to develop your goals.

I use an anti-oppressive framework in my approach to counseling, including doing my own work of unpacking oppressive messages.

Please explore this site for more information on my specialties, such as trauma, anxiety, and blending yoga with therapy; my blog; and logistics including services, rates, and availability. And feel free to pick up the phone and contact me today about us working together.

Warmly, Jamie Justus LCSW (pronouns: she/her/hers)
