Dr. Jaimee Hartman, LMFT

Dr. Jaimee Hartman uses a straightforward style that helps people address real problems. She is a licensed marriage and family therapist and has 14 years of clinical experience in California. Her approach focuses on practical tools and clear conversation so people can start making small changes quickly.

She works with stress and anxiety, depression, grief, and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain, and anger. Additional focus areas include aging and geriatric issues, communication problems, first responder matters, and hospice and end-of-life counseling.

In sessions she blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect, with Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on what matters most to the client. That combination aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns and practice different ways of handling them.

Dr. Hartman emphasizes respect and sensitivity in every meeting. She tailors conversation and goals to each person's situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. The process starts with a short intake and a shared plan so people know what to expect.

She encourages anyone taking the first step to acknowledge that it can take courage. Meetings are purposeful and paced to fit a person's needs, with room to focus on immediate concerns and longer-term goals.

Approach-focused care delivered online

Dr. Hartman uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT is useful for worries, low mood, and stress because it breaks problems into specific thoughts and actions that can be practiced differently.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers sessions on the client's own priorities and experience. That approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and tailoring conversations and goals to what the person says is most important.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Decisions about techniques and the pace of work are made collaboratively so people feel involved in planning their progress.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is helpful when visual cues matter, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is preferred, and chat or messaging can fit into a busy schedule or allow more frequent brief contacts. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work or family routines while keeping therapy consistent and focused.
