Jamie Hartman MA, LPC
MENTAL HEALTH THERAPIST
Welcome to The Nine Therapy Studio - my name is Jamie Hartman and I'm happy you found me! You may be checking out other therapists and practices and wonder if there is a real difference amongst them. We think there is.
I am a licensed mental health therapist with 7 years of experience and at The Nine we use a unique and proprietary 9-dimensional psychological assessment that provides a holistic understanding of our client's mental health and overall wellness. This tool is important, as total health and wellness are directly connected to our mental state of mind.
Health is a person's dynamic state of being that leads to longevity and resilience, while wellness is about having the awareness to make choices that affect your quality of life. All of the different elements of our lives and the complexity of each issue can make it difficult to figure out the root cause of mental health symptoms. This is where we can help.
For instance, you might come to therapy because of an emotional symptom: you're depressed. But that depression could be coming from a financial, occupational, and relational stressor. Maybe you've just been laid off and are having trouble paying bills. Your spouse is understandably upset, and you are questioning your self-worth. Only by deeply understanding how each of these issues relate to each other can we accurately diagnose what's going on and determine the best path forward. We do more than treat symptoms; we look at your whole life to determine the best treatment and solution.
Using this model allows us to streamline treatment so that you start feeling better faster.
