About Jaime
Jaime Darda is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and mood concerns. She practices in Maryland as an LCSW-C and focuses on making therapy approachable and direct. Jaime aims to make the first step feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.
She sets a calm, nonjudgmental tone so people can talk about what feels hard. Sessions emphasize clear goals and practical steps. Jaime listens for what matters most and helps shape small changes that fit everyday life.
Her work often addresses mood differences such as bipolar concerns, attention and focus issues like ADHD, and difficulties with sleep or eating. She also supports people facing relationship strain, intimacy questions, career stress, caregiving burdens, and compassion fatigue. Coping after natural or human-caused disasters is included among her focus areas.
Jaime draws on client-centered methods to keep conversations centered on each person’s priorities. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to help reframe unhelpful thoughts and solution-focused strategies to build quick, achievable plans. Mindfulness practices are woven in when they suit a person’s goals.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. Jaime helps people break larger problems into steps they can try between sessions. She encourages regular check-ins on progress and adjusts the plan when something isn’t working.
How Jaime’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on what matters most to the person in the room. Jaime uses this approach to listen deeply and shape sessions around each person's goals and values. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to sort through feelings and make decisions.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. Jaime uses CBT techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioral experiments. This approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jaime will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will choose methods that fit. That collaboration helps tailor a plan that feels doable and meaningful.
