Meet Jamie Briseno, AMFT
Jamie works with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating emotional, behavioral, developmental, and relationship challenges.
Her approach makes room for your experiences, culture, and values. Together, you can explore what you’re feeling, understand patterns that keep showing up, and work toward changes that matter in your everyday life.
Jamie’s work is grounded in psychodynamic therapy, which explores how early experiences and relationships influence how we understand ourselves and connect with others.

Affordable Child and Teen Therapy in Los Alamitos
Sometimes children show us they’re struggling through their behavior. Teens may find it difficult to explain what’s going on or know where to begin.
Jamie offers a supportive space for children and teens to explore their emotions and relationships. She also supports families and caregivers navigating challenging behaviors, recurring conflict, and developmental or emotional needs.
The work begins with understanding your child and your family’s experiences, then exploring what support could look like for you.
Child and teen therapy: $150 per 50-minute session.

Children and teens navigating emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges.
Adults exploring their feelings, relationships, and recurring patterns.
Families working through conflict and seeking stronger connections.
Parents and caregivers looking for support with challenging behaviors and repeated disagreements.
