I enjoy helping people find balance and discover/rediscover their inner strength while navigating through the challenging times and transitions in life. Life is full of surprises; while some are amazing, others can be devastating. Big life changes, such as moving away from home to go to college or for a job, having a baby, or getting divorced/breaking up, can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain. It's normal to have feelings of anxiety and/or depression, especially during change & trying times, but it's also important to get the support you need to get through the difficult times & get back on track with the help of therapy.

Jason's holistic therapy approach analyzes how personal beliefs shape disruptive behaviors. Rooted in Adlerian, existential, and constructivist views, he uses Socratic dialogue to understand clients' life experiences, challenge faulty assumptions, and guide self-awareness. His goal is to empower clients to reframe perspectives, increase social interest, and create strategies that redirect their desire for significance into cooperative, socially-beneficial ways of courageously solving life tasks with greater satisfaction.

After graduating from social work school 46 years ago, it has been my privilege to have partnered with and met all kinds of people from all walks of life presenting with a myriad of struggles. From my perspective, treatment is all about improving one's quality of life. Experience has shown me that with the appropriate amount of support and reality testing, most people are quite capable of addressing their challenges and feeling better about themselves. I prefer using a more traditional psychodynamic approach to treatment. Such an approach emphasizes providing a positive space for people to change.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
