About Jami Winkel

Jami Winkel is a compassionate and pragmatic Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 23 years of experience helping people move from awareness to lasting change. She combines emotional processing with concrete coping strategies so clients can translate insight into action when they find themselves knowing what they want to change but unsure how to get there. Trained in relational therapy and sensorimotor therapy and grounded in social justice values, she emphasizes the connection between mind and body and draws on neurobiology, summarized by the idea 'what wires together, fires together,' to support habit change and new patterns of behavior.

Her clinical focus includes stress and anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, career-related challenges, and coping with life changes. Additional areas of attention include attachment issues, avoidant personality traits, codependency, coping after natural or human-caused disasters, fatherhood issues, guilt and shame, mood disorders, polyamory and non-monogamous relationships, self-love, and women's issues. She uses a collaborative approach, working with clients to build pragmatic, healthy strategies and solutions that fit each person's circumstances and goals.

Jami holds the LMFT credential - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - and is licensed in California as CA LMFT 44036. She also works with international clients. She is not currently accepting clients.

One of the main advantages is flexibility. People can connect with therapists in the way that best fits their schedule and comfort level - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which often makes it easier to maintain consistency and integrate therapy into a busy life.

Licensed professionals provide these services, and if the fit with a particular therapist isn’t right, it is possible to switch to a different therapist at any time. For those weighing their options, remote therapy can offer a practical, accessible path to regular support and skill building.
