About Jason

Jason Jenkins is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Texas with 11 years of counseling experience. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, mood concerns such as bipolar and depression, and issues with attention and addictive behaviors. He also supports concerns around relationships, family stress, parenting strain, body image, eating issues, and life changes including adoption and foster care matters.

He trained at Dallas Theological Seminary and holds a Master of Arts in Biblical and Professional Counseling. Jason focuses on making sessions straightforward and approachable. He aims to create an open space where clients can talk about what is hard without judgment. Sessions tend to emphasize listening first and practical steps next.

Jason uses several therapy approaches to match different needs. He works from a client-centered stance that follows the person’s pace. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build new skills. For trauma, he incorporates EMDR methods when appropriate.

In meetings he usually combines skills practice with reflective conversation. That can mean learning coping tools, trying new ways to communicate, or revisiting difficult memories at a manageable pace. He encourages collaboration about goals and steps between sessions.

People looking for help with adoption and foster care-related stress or with the other concerns listed can start by sharing what matters most to them. The focus is on steady progress and practical ways to feel more grounded day to day.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy centers on listening and following a person’s lead. Online sessions using this approach focus on understanding what matters most and shaping session goals around the client’s priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions are linked and teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns. In an online setting CBT often uses homework, thought records, and practical skill practice between meetings. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories. When EMDR is used remotely, sessions proceed carefully with gradual steps and clear pacing to keep work manageable.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match goals, comfort level, and life demands. That collaborative planning helps set realistic steps and lets the client try different techniques to see what fits best.

Confirm current session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use video or audio in ways that suit their comfort and bandwidth. Ask about session length and format when scheduling so sessions align with daily life and goals.
