Dr. Jamie Spohn, MD

Dr. Jamie Spohn is a licensed psychologist with an MD (Doctor of Medicine) and more than 11 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. She has supported people facing a wide range of concerns, including traumatic brain injury and concussion, depression, anxiety, women's issues, relationship difficulties, child and adult ADHD, chronic pain and illness, learning and academic challenges, self-esteem struggles, and adjustment to injury or illness. Her clinical focus also includes blended family issues, caregiver stress, communication and family problems, guilt and shame, panic disorder, self-love, traumatic brain injury, and support for young adults and women.

Her therapeutic style blends empathy and compassion with clear, direct guidance. She typically emphasizes clients' strengths to offset areas of difficulty and uses a positive, problem-solving orientation. Cognitive-behavioral methods form her primary approach, and she integrates other orientations, such as psychodynamic ideas and motivational interviewing, when a case suggests those additions will help. She treats each person as an individual, welcomes feedback, and encourages clients to build independence and take responsibility for change.

Dr. Spohn generally responds once or twice daily Monday through Friday and does not typically respond on Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays unless special circumstances apply. The so-called Urgent button is intended only for immediate life-or-death crises and may not elicit a response over weekends or holidays unless the message meets that crisis criterion. For scheduled live sessions she currently offers live text only - no video or audio - with sessions arranged in 30-minute blocks. Clients may schedule one live text session per week and may write in their room as often as they wish, with expected responses within 24 to 48 hours Monday through Friday.
