Jamie Koivisto-Goeppinger , LPC, LPCC

Jamie Koivisto-Goeppinger is a licensed mental health therapist practicing in Minnesota and Wisconsin with ten years of clinical experience helping people through healing, growth, and self-discovery. She holds the credentials LPC and LPCC - Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - and brings a compassionate, curious approach to each therapeutic relationship.

Jamie views each person as an individual with a unique story and prefers a collaborative, person-centered style that draws on evidence-based techniques. She works at a client's pace and honors lived experience while offering tools to manage overwhelming emotions, process past trauma, and build greater self-understanding. Whether the work focuses on mood and anxiety disorders, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, addiction, or challenges related to gender and sexual identity, Jamie aims to create an affirming environment where clients can explore change.

Her clinical experience also includes supporting people with autism spectrum concerns, blended family and caregiving stresses, end-of-life and hospice issues, communication and infidelity problems, and adjustment after major life changes. Jamie emphasizes lifelong learning and sees therapy as a partnership - available to walk alongside clients for brief or longer-term work as they pursue increased coping, clarity, and resilience.

Approaches for Online Therapy and Practical Benefits

Jamie practices client-centered therapy, which focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective and creating a collaborative, respectful relationship that supports self-directed growth. This approach helps when clients want a supportive space to explore identity, relationships, and personal values.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a skills-oriented method that helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT is often helpful for developing practical strategies to manage day-to-day challenges.

Trauma-focused therapy is another part of her work, offering structured ways to process and integrate traumatic experiences while building coping resources and safety. This approach can assist people confronting the effects of past abuse, loss, or overwhelming events.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jamie will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging allow clients to connect in ways that fit their schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes, busy weeks, or when in-person visits are not feasible.
