Hi! I'm Dr. Jamie Wilson, a licensed psychologist, who has extensive experience working with college students. Life can be stressful and overwhelming. Therapy can be very beneficial to help you live your life in healthy and effective ways. Just a few examples of the benefits of therapy include: helping you to understand yourself better, developing skills to manage and tolerate stress and emotions more effectively, helping you be more compassionate with yourself, managing major life transitions, assisting you in processing losses of various kinds, working though coming out/transitioning, processing all sorts of relationship issues, building life skills and launching from home appropriately, etc.

Relationships are the most rewarding and often the most difficult parts of our lives. If you're struggling in your romantic relationship, friendships, family or even in your relationship with yourself...you're not alone. Negative thoughts and feelings can keep you from the life you want with the people you love. Counseling can give you the support and encouragement you need to help move forward and find new, better ways to communicate and connect. It can be difficult to know who to trust with the things you're going through. Therapy offers you a confidential, comfortable place to talk about the things in your life that are hard to share with others. Together, we can uncover your strengths and use them to create a plan to give you relief from the uncomfortable place you're in today.
