My name is Jamie Wilkinson. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the state of Kentucky. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or difficulties managing their anger or emotions.
I appreciate an individual's unique characteristics, and tailor my approach in therapy to each client's needs. My professional development has focused on helping individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, relationship issues, adjustment disorders, stress and self-esteem. I have specialized training to address trauma and abuse.
Therapy is a collaboration where we discover the areas where you want to make changes in your life and work toward. I like to highlight a patient’s strengths and use them to improve their confidence in therapy. My approach is very direct and I have a policy of “not beating around the bush”; but is done in a very compassionate and strengths-based manner.
Anxiety and stress take on many different forms. Stress from work, being a parent, a student, or just daily life can take a once peaceful life and turn it upside-down, creating conflict in our various relationships. No matter what stressors you face, I'll be there to help you learn the tools necessary to overcome whatever obstacles get in your way.
My goal is two-fold. First, I want to help you improve the overall quality of your life. Second, I respect the value of your subscription and want to ensure that you are maximizing the value you receive for what you are paying. To that end, I set aside 1hr every week for a Live Session with my clients. These sessions can occur via phone or video, whichever is more convenient. Live Sessions allow for more effective therapeutic interactions than by messaging by itself and directly contribute to both components of my overall treatment goal for my clients. Comparatively, those who subscribe to BetterHelp can gain the full value of their subscription in just 1 Live Session and still save money when compared to those who pay out of pocket for 1 face to face Therapy session in an outpatient setting. Those clients who wish to work with me should be willing to set aside 1hr in their schedule every week for a Live Session.
Additional areas of focus: Addictions, LGBT, Family conflicts, Grief, Sleeping disorders, Self esteem, Career difficulties, Depression, Compassion fatigue, ADHD

I cannot thank Jamie enough for being a rational voice when I was having difficulty understanding my feelings and the anxiety I was experiencing. He allowed me to voice every thought in a safe, non-judgmental environment. Jamie gave me feedback that provided meaningful insight as well as taught me how to deal with the anxiety I was feeling and has helped me move past it all. Thank you Jamie!
