Oh, hey! What a coincidence to meet you here. Everyone seems to be stressed, depressed or plain old over everything and everyone. I get it. I really do. The last thing you want to be doing on your fifteen minute break is looking for someone to talk to about your problems and the general state of the world, but you're here, and I'm available to listen. I'm not going to use a bunch of fancy words I learned in grad school or make you feel like I'm the expert on your life. You know you best.

Jamie Littleton

Jamie Littleton

Therapist

Virtual • California


I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can finally exhale. I strive to create an environment that is supportive, honest, and free of judgment; a place where you feel truly seen and emotionally safe. My approach is collaborative and practical. I don’t just help you understand why you feel the way you do; I help you build real tools to navigate it.

I earned my degree from Cal State Fullerton and have extensive experience working in addiction treatment, eating disorder recovery, and women’s issues. Supporting women is especially meaningful to me. I am deeply passionate about helping women navigate challenges related to self-worth, body image, relationships, boundaries, life transitions, and identity. I understand how trauma, societal expectations, and relational dynamics can shape how women see themselves, and I approach this work with both compassion and clarity.

Together, we focus on strengthening mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills in ways that feel realistic and sustainable. I blend insight-oriented exploration with concrete strategies, because meaningful change happens when insight meets action. My goal is to help you better understand your patterns, feel more confident managing your emotions, and move forward with greater clarity, self-trust, and resilience.
