Jamie Gaskin , LPC

Jamie Gaskin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who earned a Master’s Degree in Counseling with a specialization in Clinical Mental Health from Holy Cross University. She is a National Certified Counselor and a member of the American Counseling Association, and she has advanced training while working toward certification in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Story Informed Trauma Therapy (SITT), and Play Therapy.

With seven years of clinical experience, Jamie has worked extensively with people affected by trauma, supporting individuals, couples, and families through a variety of relational and traumatic challenges. She uses an attachment-informed framework drawn from EFT and SITT to help clients trace how early relationships shaped familiar patterns and responses. Validating how a person’s behaviors made sense in context helps build self-understanding and acceptance.

Jamie’s approach centers on attachment-based exploration - looking at what was learned from caregivers, how comfort was found as a child, whether emotions felt safe to express, and how those early dynamics influence present-day relationships, parenting, and self-esteem. By identifying unhealthy cycles and learning new ways of relating, clients can work toward more secure bonds with partners and more adaptive coping strategies. She encourages acknowledging struggle as an important step and partners with clients to discover practical pathways to a healthier, more connected life.

Attachment and Emotion-Focused Approaches Delivered Online

Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationships and patterns of care shape present-day connections. It helps people understand recurring relational behaviors, address attachment wounds such as abandonment or difficulty trusting, and build more secure bonds with partners and family members.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and interaction patterns in relationships. It helps couples and individuals name the feelings driving their responses, shift negative cycles, and strengthen emotional connection and intimacy.

Client-Centered Therapy offers empathic, non-directive support that helps people explore feelings and make choices aligned with their values. It can be helpful for issues like self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, and developing greater self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Jamie will work collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Therapists often integrate approaches to fit the person rather than applying a single method rigidly.

Online therapy provides flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity when schedules or locations change, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each step of the work.
