About Jason

Jason Wright is a licensed professional clinical counselor and a licensed professional counselor practicing in California. He brings 26 years of experience helping adults manage issues like anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and coping with life changes. Jason's approach is warm and collaborative, and he focuses on individual psychotherapy tailored to each person's situation.

He centers therapy on listening first, then works with practical strategies that match a client's needs and pace. Sessions often combine client-centered care with cognitive tools to address thinking patterns and behaviors. Mindfulness and motivational methods appear in his work to help people build everyday skills for handling stress and cravings.

Jason also uses existential ideas to help people find meaning during major transitions or periods of emptiness. He has experience addressing trauma-related concerns including post-traumatic stress and dissociation, and has published work related to psychogenic seizures. That background informs careful attention to symptoms that can arise from trauma.

People seeking help for anger, obsessive behaviors, panic, or life purpose questions will find a mix of short-term strategies and longer-term exploration. He describes his style as engaging and respectful, with an emphasis on collaboration and listening. Goals are set together and adjusted as progress unfolds.

To begin, Jason asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability. He works in English and maintains licensure as CA LPCC and VA LPC.

How Jason’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting working relationship. It helps people feel heard and guides them to find their own solutions for stress, grief, and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and to manage anxiety, panic, or mood problems with step-by-step strategies.

Existential Therapy examines meaning, values, and life choices. This approach can be useful when people face major transitions, feelings of emptiness, or questions about purpose.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to goals and preferences, then try methods that match the issue and the person’s style. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, combining brief skills work with deeper conversations when helpful.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices to work in remote sessions so progress continues between meetings.
