About Jason
He brings 13 years of experience as a psychotherapist and holds the Licensed Master Social Worker and Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker credentials. He has supported people dealing with trauma, emotional and physical abuse, bipolar disorder, and co-occurring problems such as chronic pain or illness. He also offers a faith-informed counseling option for clients who prefer a Christian perspective and want their beliefs included in sessions.
In sessions he keeps the work interactive and practical. He draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to change patterns of thinking and behavior, mindfulness techniques to reduce stress, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy to improve emotional regulation. He aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s needs rather than using one fixed method.
Jason emphasizes collaboration and clear steps. He helps people set realistic goals, practice skills between sessions, and track progress. This approach is meant to translate into better day-to-day coping and clearer decisions.
He is based in Missouri and conducts therapy in English. People interested in starting are invited to follow the site's process to match and schedule a session.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take small behavior steps that align with those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and making meaning after life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. It often includes simple exercises to practice between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment attention and nonjudgmental awareness to reduce stress and improve focus.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That collaboration helps tailor techniques so they fit daily life and feel doable.
The biography does not list exact online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full in-person visit isn't needed. It also makes it simpler to use homework tools and mindfulness practices between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises to remote sessions so clients can keep progressing from their usual routines.
