Background and approach
Jason became a Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor in 2014 and obtained his LPC credential in 2022. His work began focused on substance use and broadened to anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress. In sessions he uses straightforward, evidence-based approaches to help people notice unhelpful thinking, change behaviors, and build day-to-day coping skills.
He blends problem-solving with supportive conversation so clients can try tools between meetings and review what worked. Jason favors a whole-person view of change - looking at thoughts, feelings, routines, and relationships together. He also brings skills from dialectical methods and ongoing talk therapy to help people manage intense emotions and improve relationships with themselves and others.
Outside of work he spends time with family and pursues outdoor activities like hiking, mountain biking, and skiing, and enjoys riding his Harley.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Jason often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and anxiety active. CBT focuses on simple exercises and experiments you can practice between sessions to reduce worry and improve mood.He also integrates Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills to help with emotion regulation and distress tolerance. These strategies teach breathing, grounding, and communication skills to handle intense feelings without acting on them. He combines these skills with ongoing talk therapy to work through trauma or substance-related concerns in a paced way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and daily routines and then tailor techniques to fit those needs. That collaboration helps decide which tools to focus on and how to try them between meetings.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility for different schedules. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text can be a shorter check-in, and messaging lets people share thoughts between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and still build lasting skills.
