Dr. Jamie Spohn, MD

Dr. Jamie Spohn is an MD psychologist with 11 years of experience. She centers her work on cognitive behavioral approaches to help people change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Her manner is direct and warm, and she focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions.

She helps people manage anxiety, stress, and depression in everyday life. She also supports parents, people navigating relationships, and those coping with grief, anger, or career stress. ADHD and self-esteem concerns are part of her regular caseload.

Dr. Spohn has particular experience with traumatic brain injury, concussion, chronic pain, and adjustment to illness or disability. She also addresses blended family issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, and young adult challenges. These concerns often overlap, and she works with the whole picture.

Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas when helpful. That means sessions focus on changing patterns now, clarifying motivations, and looking at past influences that still affect daily life. She highlights strengths and practical problem-solving throughout treatment.

Dr. Spohn communicates primarily Monday through Friday and typically responds once or twice a day. Live text sessions are available in 30-minute blocks, plus ongoing messaging where clients can write and expect a response within 24 to 48 hours on weekdays. She encourages feedback and tailors the work to each person.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Dr. Spohn uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thoughts and habits that worsen anxiety, depression, or stress. CBT focuses on clear tools and exercises clients can practice between sessions to get quicker relief.

She also integrates Motivational Interviewing to clarify personal goals and build internal motivation. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about change, such as shifting health behaviors or sticking with treatment plans.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and past experiences and then suggest whether CBT, motivational work, or some psychodynamic exploration fits best. That plan can change as progress is made.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and ongoing text-based messaging. Video is helpful for deeper, face-to-face conversation, while phone calls can suit shorter check-ins or times with limited bandwidth. Live chat and messaging make it easier to fit brief check-ins into busy days and to get practical support between sessions. These choices make therapy more flexible and easier to match to everyday routines.
