Jaime Bollmann, LCSW

Jaime Bollmann is a Wisconsin licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and problems with self-esteem. She also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, substance use struggles, parenting strain, and mood-related challenges. Jaime writes plainly and meets clients where they are in the moment. With 18 years of experience, Jaime emphasizes that people are the experts in their own stories. She encourages clients to build on their strengths and to focus on choices they can make now. Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward, with attention to immediate concerns as well as longer-term goals. Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods to identify unhelpful thinking and to strengthen coping skills. Motivational Interviewing is used when ambivalence or readiness to change is present. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear, achievable steps for moving forward. Jaime often works with people dealing with family problems, blended family dynamics, codependency, communication and commitment issues, and mood or panic symptoms. She also addresses substance use, impulsivity, guilt and shame, and compassion fatigue for overwhelmed caregivers. People who choose Jaime can expect a respectful, collaborative style. She listens first, then helps map small, practical steps. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes, so clients leave sessions with tools they can use between meetings.

How Jaime blends practical approaches online

Jaime often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT can be useful for anxiety, mood struggles, panic symptoms, and many everyday worries. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and helping clients find their own answers rather than telling them what to do.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Jaime talks with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether to emphasize CBT techniques, motivational work, or a solution-focused plan, and that plan can change as progress is made.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video offers face-to-face time for skill practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions are useful when a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text messaging can support quick updates, homework checks, or ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
