Jamie Ray , LCMHC, LCPC

Jamie Ray is a licensed counselor who draws on ten years of professional clinical experience to support people through stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and life transitions. She is LCMHC and LCPC credentialed and practices in Montana, helping clients facing issues like addiction, parenting strain, grief, and concerns related to identity and intimacy.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. She uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered talk to help people notice what matters, change unhelpful thinking, and build skills to cope. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, doable steps toward improved day-to-day functioning.

Jamie aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared and understood. She emphasizes collaboration and works with each person to shape a plan that fits their life and values. She also brings attention to mindfulness and emotion-focused strategies when they fit the client’s needs.

Over her career she has supported people dealing with career stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, sleep problems, and complex grief. She also addresses additional areas such as adoption and foster care concerns, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and first responder issues.

Sessions are offered in English and are delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The service uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling is set after completing a short matching questionnaire.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and navigating major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches specific skills to reduce unhelpful thinking and improve coping for anxiety, mood, and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT, or client-centered conversation is the best fit and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation when it helps, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or messaging can support ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.
