About Jason

Jason Wright is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 26 years of experience. He works with adults on concerns such as depression, anxiety, OCD, trauma, substance use, and other life challenges.

He focuses on individual psychotherapy using clear, structured methods. Sessions often include identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different ways of responding to them. He uses cognitive behavioral tools alongside client-centered, existential, mindfulness, and motivational approaches to address practical problems like panic, phobias, addiction, and grief.

Jason has worked with complex trauma and stress-related conditions. He has published about psychogenic seizures in Counseling Today, a journal of the American Counseling Association. That experience informs his work with trauma-related symptoms and dissociative presentations.

In sessions he listens first, then uses techniques that fit the person’s goals. That can mean setting small, measurable steps, practicing skills between meetings, or exploring values and meaning when that helps move a person forward. He also uses motivational strategies for people wrestling with substance use or change-resistant patterns.

People can expect practical, task-focused conversations that aim to build clearer thinking and steadier coping. He helps people sort immediate problems and plan next steps for work, relationships, or daily life. If someone wants to begin, they follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.

How his approaches translate to online work

Jason blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered and existential approaches in many sessions. CBT here focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for anxiety, panic, phobias, and mood problems. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and responding to what matters most to the person, helping build goals and pacing change. Existential work looks at values and meaning when life purpose or deep dissatisfaction are part of the concern.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences, mixing practical skill-building with reflective conversations as needed.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use formats that match their needs for quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth, or a quicker goal-focused visit. Licensed professionals can adjust pacing and homework to fit everyday life.
