Jaime Askew , LMFT

Jaime Askew is a California-licensed therapist with 24 years of professional experience who supports people navigating stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, and trauma and abuse. As an LMFT - a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - she brings a relational perspective and practical skills to help clients explore their thoughts and emotions and to address patterns that interfere with daily life.

She creates an open, nonjudgmental space where feelings and concerns can be shared honestly, and she works with clients to identify goals and steps toward change. Jaime emphasizes empowerment and practical support, recognizing that it takes courage to pursue a more fulfilling and happier life. She partners with individuals to build coping strategies, strengthen relationships, and move toward meaningful, sustainable change.

Evidence-based approaches for online therapeutic support

Jaime employs evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person's needs. Trauma-focused interventions help people process past hurts and reduce the impact of traumatic memories so they can regain a sense of safety and stability. Skills-based behavioral strategies teach practical coping tools - such as stress management, emotional regulation, and relapse prevention - that are useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and addictions. Attachment-focused work explores relationship patterns and intimacy issues, supporting healthier connections and improved communication.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Jaime collaborates with each client to identify goals, try suitable methods, and adjust techniques over time so the treatment fits the client’s needs, preferences, and life circumstances.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to access care from home or during busy schedules. These options provide flexibility in scheduling, allow for consistent continuity of care, and let clients choose the format that feels most comfortable while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
