Testimonials

Haley Harris: Houston, TX

Working with Jamie Vanderlinden during my graduate program in social work has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. Jamie is incredibly kind and encouraging, and she has a unique ability to make you feel both supported and challenged in the best ways. Her depth of knowledge is remarkable, but what makes her exceptional is how beautifully she articulates and shares that knowledge in a way that is both accessible and inspiring.

Like many graduate students, I experienced imposter syndrome, but Jamie consistently reminded me of the strengths and skills I already had within me. She gently drew those qualities out, helping me to grow in confidence and competence. Watching her interact with clients was an education in itself—her talent is undeniable, and the growth she facilitates in others is truly beautiful to witness.

Looking back, I can say that the bulk of my knowledge and growth as a therapist came not from the classroom, but from the experiences and guidance Jamie provided. She not only trained me, but also helped me process, reflect, and understand in ways that made my learning deeper and more personal. She encouraged me to explore and identify parts of myself that would ultimately make me a stronger, more authentic therapist.

There are not enough good things I can say about Jamie. She has profoundly shaped me, both as a person and as a therapist, and I will carry her influence with me throughout my career. Jamie has truly changed my life forever.

Laugh, learn, and experiment—read the blog or try a course, but only what actually works for you.
