Jason Williamson , LPC

Jason Williamson draws on nearly 20 years of public service in the military and state government to inform his work in counseling. He pursued formal training in psychology, earning a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and has professional credentials that include Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor. Those combined experiences led him into counseling with a clear motivation to help others based on his own life and professional background.

His clinical focus began with substance use and addiction and has broadened to include anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, and related mood and post-traumatic stress issues. He takes a holistic stance on change, operating from the belief that people are the experts on their own lives while sometimes benefiting from a different perspective and structured support. In practice he primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, integrates Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and incorporates open talk therapy to build skills, regulate emotions, and address unhelpful patterns.

Outside of clinical work he enjoys family time and outdoor pursuits, including hiking, mountain biking, skiing, and the restorative feeling he calls wind-therapy while riding his Harley.

Evidence-Based Techniques Adapted for Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, depression, and other concerns. It is practical and skills-oriented, helping clients develop tools to manage symptoms and respond differently to difficult situations.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be especially helpful for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and reducing patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Jason works collaboratively with each person to determine which techniques fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and adjusts methods as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect with licensed professionals and therapists. Jason provides sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit care into busy schedules and reach support from different locations. This range of options supports consistent access to therapy while allowing each person to choose the mode that feels most effective for them.
