Professional statement

Jamie Wendt is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist based in Westlake Village, California. She specializes in women's issues, young adults and children's mental health, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Jamie's practice, Engage Psychological Services, is a warm, safe, and understanding environment where Jamie utilizes various therapeutic approaches such as Humanistic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Play Therapy, and Mindfulness-based and Somatic Therapy. Therapeutic approaches are often tailored to the client and their unique needs to help them feel more in control of their life.

She celebrates the diversity of identities, backgrounds, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and abilities that shape each person’s experience. Therapy is most effective when all aspects of your identity are welcomed into the conversation, creating a space for deeper self-exploration and growth. Jamie holds strong values of community, autonomy, respect, and justice, and I am dedicated to providing an inclusive, equitable environment where every voice is valued, and you feel empowered to embrace your full self on your healing journey.


Message to clients

Welcome!

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I want to acknowledge the courage it takes to seek support. Whether you're here because you're navigating a life transition, struggling with anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges, or just want a space to explore what's happening in your life, you're in the right place.

I offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where we can work together to understand your needs and goals. Our first sessions will focus on getting to know you—your story, your challenges, and what you're hoping to achieve through therapy. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is essential to our work together, and I believe that healing happens in a space of trust, respect, and understanding.

I incorporate various therapeutic approaches, including humanistic, cognitive-behavioral, somatic, and mindfulness-based techniques, tailored to meet you where you are. We'll work collaboratively to explore your feelings, identify patterns, and find tools that help you manage life's ups and downs with more ease.

Whether we’re meeting virtually or in person, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. I look forward to walking alongside you on this journey toward healing and growth.

Therapist's note

I currently do not accept insurance as insurance companies often put limits on clients therapeutic goals, treatment plans, and more. I like to put the client first and collaborate to ensure all your needs are being properly met. I can offer a superbill if needed and sliding scale.
