About Jaimee
Dr. Jaimee Hartman is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, relationship strain, intimacy-related concerns, parenting pressures, and anger. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear conversation rather than jargon.
She emphasizes straightforward, respectful dialogue. Conversations cover what is most pressing now and what changes are realistic. People leave sessions with ideas they can try between meetings and ways to notice small shifts in mood and behavior.
Dr. Hartman draws from Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the person in front of her. That approach centers the client’s experience and preferences. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain stress, anxiety, or anger.
Her work includes supporting people through major life transitions, end-of-life and hospice-related concerns, and issues related to aging and geriatric needs. She also has experience with communication problems and challenges faced by first responders. Practical problem solving and clear plans are common elements of her sessions.
Her style is direct but respectful, aimed at helping people notice what is working and what is not. If you want clear tools for handling anger, stronger ways to talk about difficult topics, or practical ways to manage stress, she focuses on concrete next steps.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's experience. In practice this means sessions start with the client's concerns and preferences, and the therapist follows that lead to set topics and pace. This approach helps with frustration, relationship tension, and feeling unheard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions that keep problems going. It breaks issues into manageable parts and uses small experiments or skill practices. CBT is often used for anxiety, anger, and low mood because it gives clear steps to try between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help figure out which methods fit each person's needs, goals, and style, and will adjust plans as those needs change. That collaboration helps keep sessions focused and relevant.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. They also allow short check-ins or fuller discussions depending on what a person needs that day, and can be scheduled around work or caregiving responsibilities.
