About Jason

Jason Amyx is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Kentucky with 12 years of experience. He works with concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, grief, and relationship and parenting challenges. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients.

Jason has experience in treatment leadership and direct clinical work in mental health settings. He has supported people dealing with physical trauma and emotional abuse and has worked across age ranges including children, adolescents, and adults. He also lists work with bipolar disorder, eating concerns, anger, self-esteem, and career-related stress.

His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered, dialectical behavior, emotionally-focused, and Jungian ideas. He uses structured tools to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, and he combines that with conversational techniques to clarify goals. He is willing to be direct and to challenge patterns while also using gentle humor to ease tension.

Jason also focuses on attachment-related themes such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, and blended family dynamics. He names areas like autism and Asperger syndrome, avoidant personality traits, codependency, and body image among his concerns of interest. He addresses practical issues such as communication problems, commitment concerns, and coping after natural or human-caused disasters.

In sessions he aims to build a plan that includes measurable steps. That may mean tracking thoughts and behaviors, practicing coping skills, and reviewing progress together. To start, he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and online work

Jason uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and everyday habits. CBT often focuses on clear exercises, short experiments, and tracking progress to reduce anxiety, depression, or problematic behaviors.

He also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening and reflecting so the client can clarify goals and values. That approach can help when people are deciding what they want to change or how to prioritize problems.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are part of his toolbox for learning practical skills. DBT skills train emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication for people who need step-by-step coping strategies.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. He will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, then try approaches together and adjust them over time. The process is collaborative and focused on what produces usable tools for daily life.

The original profile does not specify exact online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets, and skill practice for remote sessions to keep the work practical and concrete.
