Jamielyn "Jamie" Yates is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with five years of experience supporting people through a range of emotional and behavioral concerns. She works with clients facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, self-esteem challenges, and difficulties coping with life changes, as well as related areas such as codependency, communication problems, grief and end-of-life concerns, gender dysphoria, and relationship complexities. Jamielyn has also worked with presentations that include bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, loneliness, paranoia, phobias, and self-harm behaviors.

Jamielyn uses evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness therapy, and solution-focused approaches to help people build practical skills and find clearer pathways forward. Her practice emphasizes identifying the thoughts and behaviors that once helped someone survive but now limit growth, and then replacing those patterns with strategies that support a more fulfilling life. Clients have noted her nonjudgmental stance and strong listening skills as assets in the therapeutic process.

She aims to empower clients by reducing distress through skill development, structured interventions, and collaborative problem solving. Jamielyn focuses on helping individuals reclaim a sense of purpose, improve relationships, and manage the day-to-day challenges that get in the way of a life they want to lead. As an LPC, she brings a balance of practical techniques and mindful awareness to guide clients toward meaningful change.
