Jamie Finkelstein LPC

Many adults with ADHD have spent years feeling frustrated or misunderstood. My approach focuses on understanding how your brain works and building systems that fit your strengths. Together, we'll develop practical skills for organization, time management, emotional regulation, focus, and follow-through. Using CBT, mindfulness, and strengths-based strategies, I help clients reduce shame, increase confidence, and create lasting changes that make daily life feel more manageable and successful.

Many LGBTQ+ individuals have experienced judgment, rejection, or pressure to hide parts of themselves. My approach begins with creating a safe, affirming space where you can show up authentically and be fully accepted. Whether you're exploring identity, navigating relationships, managing anxiety, or coping with life's challenges, therapy can provide support and clarity. Using a strengths-based, compassionate approach, I help clients build self-confidence, develop coping skills, and create a life

Living with a chronic illness can be exhausting in ways that others may not see. Along with physical symptoms, many people face grief, uncertainty, frustration, anxiety, and the feeling of being misunderstood. As someone living with Myasthenia Gravis since 2015, I understand these challenges personally and professionally. My approach combines CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and self-compassion to help clients manage stress, adapt to changing circumstances, build resilience, and create a meaningful life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients stop struggling against difficult thoughts and emotions and instead focus on living according to their values. In therapy, I'll help you develop mindfulness skills, increase psychological flexibility, and take meaningful action even when challenges are present. Rather than waiting for anxiety, stress, or discomfort to disappear, ACT helps you build a rich, fulfilling life alongside them while moving toward what matters most.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) helps people better manage intense emotions, navigate relationships, and cope with stress in healthy ways. In therapy, I'll help you develop skills in mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication. Together, we'll work on balancing acceptance and change so you can respond to challenges more intentionally, strengthen relationships, and feel more confident handling difficult situations.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns that influence emotions and behaviors. In our work together, I'll help you recognize negative thinking, challenge self-defeating beliefs, and develop healthier ways of responding to life's challenges. CBT is practical, goal-oriented, and focused on building skills that reduce distress, increase confidence, and support lasting change in everyday life.
