Carey Psychological Services

Empowering individuals with the self-awareness and strategies needed to enhance cognitive flexibility, self-regulation, and executive functioning.

Jamie Carey, Ed.S., LEP, BCBA

If you or your child struggle with learning, focus, or emotional regulation, you’re not alone. Many bright, capable individuals feel frustrated when their challenges hold them back from reaching their full potential. But with the right support, growth is possible—and I’m here to help.

I’m Jamie Carey and for over 15 years I’ve worked with children, families, and educators to turn struggles into strengths. Whether it’s helping a student stay organized and on track with schoolwork, supporting a child with managing emotions, or guiding parents in understanding their child’s unique learning needs, my goal is to create a path forward that feels empowering and hopeful.

I am a Licensed Educational Psychologist (LEP) and Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). I have been a certified School Psychologist and BCBA since 2012 and I have worked with Easter Seals of Southern California Autism Services and school districts in San Diego County and Orange County, California.

I offer comprehensive assessments for giftedness, dyslexia, learning disabilities, Autism, and ADHD, as well as one-on-one coaching and counseling to strengthen executive functioning, self-regulation, and emotional resilience. My approach is tailored to each individual, using evidence-based strategies including CBT, DBT, ACT, and motivational interviewing to build practical skills that make everyday life easier.

Helping You or Your Child Build Confidence & Thrive

Services

Assessments

Using a variety of tools tailored to my client’s background and areas of concern, I complete assessments to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses present among academic, cognitive, social, emotional, and behavioral skills. Each of my assessments include diagnostic impressions (if applicable) and recommendations for evidence-based interventions specific to the assessment results to help my clients grow and succeed.

Counseling

Educationally-based counseling sessions focus on skills that support the ability to succeed in educational and vocational pursuits, despite challenges related to learning and emotional regulation. I utilize a variety of evidence-based counseling methods to inspire my clients to increase their psychological flexibility and take positive action towards their academic and vocational success.

Executive Function Coaching

Certified by Pam Dawson, author of Smart but Scattered; executive function coaching is a personalized intervention in which I work closely with each client to set goals, develop effective and personalized strategies, and practice skills for success. Together, we will focus on enhancing skills like planning, organization, and self-regulation to support better management of daily tasks and responsibilities.
