More about Jason

  • 12 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

I am licensed in Arkansas with 12 years of professional work experience. I’ve utilized EMDR therapy for many years, and practice CBT as well. I have experience in helping clients with trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, confidence, & depression as well as many other issues.

I believe that you are the expert of your own story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

When I’m not helping clients, you can find me playing my guitar and singing, playing a round of golf with one of my friends, watching sports (at least until I fall asleep on the couch) , spending time with my sons (or at least one of the three of them) or hitting a hiking trail somewhere in the woods.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
