More about Jason

  • 15 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

Most of us are doing the best they can with the options and tools they have available at the time. Sometimes we need a helping hand to move forward. In these times of need therapy can offer insight, objective feedback, and guidance. Together we can work towards reaching your goals and personal growth.

I have over 15 years’ experience providing mental health services and behavioral counseling. I have worked with adults, couples, families, adolescents and even children. I have helped to treat issues including anxiety, depression, anger management, low self-confidence, school/ career concerns, stress, parenting dynamics, and relationship challenges. My therapeutic style draws elements from cognitive-behavioral model, strength’s-based approach, motivational interviewing, and solution focused to name a few. My approach is friendly, non-judgmental interjecting both constructive criticism and even humor at times.

Change is a process that can be undertaken at any stage of your life. Just because today does not align with your goals, does not reflect what you can achieve tomorrow. My hope is that together we can help you identify skills and techniques to get your life back in the direction you want to go.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Jason changes my life one session at a time. I’ve speaking to him for over a year and I feel my mental and emotional transformation over the last year wouldn’t have been possible without Jason. Jason is a god-send! His questions are always amazing and thought provoking, and he seems to always know the right thing to say. I can’t recommend him enough.

Jason has been phenomenal. Honest, empathetic and very much willing to listen without any judgment, so your session feels like a very safe space! I respect him and his approach and I think he'd be a great therapist for whatever the situation is that might need counseling.

Jason is both professional and personal when it comes to my therapy. He understands not only my needs, but how to relate the information, so I may understand it and comprehend it better. I am very pleased with Jason as my counselor.

Reviewed June 2021

Jason is a great councellor, and I look forward to our sessions every week. If for some reason we have to skip one, my whole week gets thrown off. He makes you feel like you are speaking with a friend, not that he's there's just doing his job. I've had councellor in the past that made me feel like I was just a way of making money, and they didn't seem to care or even seem like they were listening. Jason listens to me, and never makes me feel like my concerns or problems are silly. I am very blessed that he accepted me as a client. I HIGHLY recommend him.
