About Jason

Jason Jenkins is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas who focuses on concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and abuse, and grief. He has 11 years of counseling experience and aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable. Jason emphasizes a direct, respectful approach that helps people talk through hard things and figure out next steps. He uses plain language in sessions and builds space for open conversation. Jason combines client-centered work with practical methods drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. He also draws on existential ideas and has experience using eye movement desensitization and reprocessing when trauma memories are a central concern. His background includes a Master of Arts in Biblical and Professional Counseling from Dallas Theological Seminary. That training informs his interest in values, meaning, and relationship patterns alongside symptom-focused work. Over his career he has worked with people facing addiction, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, eating-related issues, relationship and intimacy questions, parenting stress, career strain, and life transitions. Sessions focus on clear goals and concrete skills when helpful. Jason also attends to the stories that shape how people see themselves and their choices. He supports people with coping strategies for anger, low self-esteem, dissociation, and adjustment after loss or separation. People who reach out can expect a calm, straightforward style that balances empathy with practical tools. To start, he asks clients to describe the immediate concerns and their goals for change so sessions can be shaped to fit real life.

How Jason Uses Evidence-Informed Methods Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most to them so goals can be set together.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact. It offers practical exercises to break unhelpful cycles and is often used for depression, anxiety, and stress.

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, EMDR, is used when traumatic memories are causing ongoing distress. It combines structured recall with bilateral stimulation to reduce the intensity of distressing memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the person's goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean using skill-based CBT exercises some weeks and exploring core life meaning or trauma-focused work in others.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what to expect. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make some treatment tools, like homework exercises and worksheets, easier to share and review between meetings.
