Background and approach

Jorie combines her experience with down-to-earth problem solving to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship strains. Her approach is client-centered and active. She listens for the stories that shape how someone sees themselves and their relationships, then helps people test new ways of coping.

Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to set clear, time-limited goals and to practice new skills between sessions. Jorie also uses emotionally-focused and motivational strategies to improve communication and strengthen emotional connection. She attends to attachment issues, blended family dynamics, parenting stress, mood concerns, and life transitions.

Jorie works with concerns that include addictions, eating struggles, bipolar disorder, ADHD, postpartum depression, and fertility-related stress. Her training includes a Master of Arts in Child, Couple, and Family Therapy and management background with an MBA in Healthcare Management. Jorie aims to create a calm space where people can name problems, try different approaches, and build clearer paths forward.

Online support

How attachment work and practical therapy fit online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations and reactions today. It helps people notice patterns in attachment, improve emotional connection, and build more supported ways of relating to others.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person in the room. The therapist listens, mirrors, and helps people find their own answers rather than directing them. This approach supports people dealing with identity questions, life purpose, and emotional overwhelm.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and actions that keep problems going. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks issues into manageable steps and practices new skills between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different strategies, and adjust methods based on what works best. That collaborative process helps match techniques to concerns like attachment issues, parenting strain, or mood symptoms.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation for in-depth work. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, reflections between sessions, and ongoing support without scheduling a full call.
