Jamie Lafontsee

Jamie Lafontsee

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


I hold a Master’s degree in Marriage & Family Therapy and a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, and I have been working in the mental health field since 2013. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Licensed Limited Professional Counselor (LLPC) in the state of Michigan.

Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work across both private and public sectors with individuals and families navigating a wide range of experiences, including involvement with the criminal justice system, Child Protective Services (CPS), juvenile residential care, and private practice.

I genuinely love working with individuals, couples, and families. I believe we ALL have a story to tell, and each of our journeys is unique. The experiences we have along the way shape who we are and can sometimes lead us to therapy—not to be judged, but to be heard, understood, supported, and reminded that we are human.

Therapy with me allows a space where you can show up as you are, explore your story, and work toward the life and relationships you desire.

I would be honored to be a part of your journey. ❤️
