Counseling that is specifically designed for gifted and exceptionally bright individuals is different because the causes of underlying problems are different. Gifted and High Achieving children and adults possess advanced cognitive abilities and heightened intensity which creates inner experiences and awareness that is different from those of their peers.
They often have an insatiable curiosity, advanced mental ability, surprising intensity, and an abundance of thought-provoking questions. For the gifted individual, the ability to take concepts and ideas to the next level is not a choice; it's something they automatically do without trying.
While this can be a great asset in school or work, it can also cause problems. Jamie Dana and her team have extensive experience working with the gifted population. Members of our team are parents of gifted students, partners of gifted spouses, or are gifted themselves and understand the struggles you face from multiple perspectives.
Jamie has spent over 15 years working in the field evaluating and providing support for 2e and gifted individuals and their families.

She has been called on to provide her expertise at conferences and professional development seminars for professionals working with the gifted and high achieving population. Although a label can be helpful for many to understand a set of characteristics or traits, we recognize that each individual is unique.
