Jason is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate in North Carolina (LCSWA) and Maryland (LMSW). Jason believes deeply in the human capacity to heal, grow, and be happy. As a therapist, he offers a non-judgmental and compassionate space where clients can tap into that capacity. He combines depth and practicality in his work with clients, creating a space where clients can expect to be thoroughly cared for and understood as well as challenged and given the tools to prosper.

As we progress through the stages of our lives, we often begin to realize how the experiences we've had along the way have shaped us into the person we are today. Therapy is a safe and nonjudgemental space to explore these experiences with curiosity. As a licensed Clinical Social Worker, I utilize a collaborative, solution focused, and strengths based approach informed by evidence based therapeutic treatment modalities to support clients of all backgrounds and identities in unravelling the psychological and environmental factors that have impacted you along your life journey.

Are you struggling with the aftermath of trauma, anxiety, or depression? Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, nightmares, or emotional pain. If you're seeking relief from PTSD symptoms, looking to improve relationships, or hoping to reclaim your life, you're not alone. Trauma can leave deep scars, but healing is possible. Whether you're dealing with recent events or long-standing issues, there are effective, evidence-based treatments that can help you process traumatic memories and develop healthier coping mechanisms without extensive retelling of your experiences.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist located in Cary, NC providing individual (ages 18-85+) and marital therapy. I have extensive experience working with survivors of traumatic events (combat, sexual assault, childhood abuse, domestic violence, car accidents, and natural disasters) and aiding them in their recovery. I am often inspired by the resilience and fortitude amongst this population. My areas of expertise are PTSD, depression, panic, anxiety, OCD, grief and loss, and emotion regulation. I also specialize in working with couples to improve communication, decrease conflict, enhance intimacy, and address infidelity.

I provide guidance for clients with a variety of mental health concerns including anxiety, OCD, depression, traumatic events, challenging childhoods, and feeling overwhelmed, stressed and “not good enough,” but most importantly, I enjoy helping folks navigate the challenges of being human in a world that is constantly telling us how we’re “supposed” to be. I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental and down-to-earth environment for clients to begin sharing their life experiences, expanding self-awareness, shifting perspectives, and letting go of unworkable patterns in order to move in a more meaningful and intentional direction.

Whether you are dealing with an addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, or another mental health concern, I am here to help guide you in the direction of your goals. It can feel isolating and defeating to cope with these mental health concerns alone. It might feel like nobody understands you or that you are just going through the motions of life. You may wonder if there is hope or a way out. I believe that with the right support, everyone has the natural drive and ability to reach their goals and live a fulfilling life.

Many of my clients come to me feeling like anxious thoughts have them feeling run down, burned out, and out of control. Some clients have strained relationships with their primary caregiver(s) and struggle with feeling a sense of purpose and value in their lives. Others are coming to see me because their parent or caregiver is searching for ways to support them through the challenges of adolescence, and they stumbled upon my page.
