About Jason
Jason Stary is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Kansas with ten years of experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Jason also focuses on issues like fatherhood concerns, communication problems, and feeling stuck about purpose.
He blends practical, skills-based work with conversations about values and relationships. Sessions often include hands-on tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. He also teaches Acceptance and Commitment Therapy skills to help people notice their thoughts and take values-based action.
Jason draws on attachment and family systems ideas to look at how earlier relationships shape current patterns. When clients want to include faith in sessions, he can integrate Christian perspectives into the work. He aims to help people name what matters to them and practice small, steady changes.
He has run group sessions for an intensive outpatient program since 2022 in addition to individual care. Jason speaks from personal experience with depression and anxiety, which informs how he talks about coping strategies and realistic next steps.
In sessions he focuses on clear goals and teachable skills rather than long explanations. That can mean learning specific coping techniques, practicing communication moves, or developing a plan to handle transitions like new jobs or parenting roles. He encourages straightforward discussion about values and practical steps toward those goals.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. It can help when someone feels stuck, uncertain about direction, or overwhelmed by self-judgment.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical ways to test and change them. It is often used for stress, anxiety, depression, and managing anger.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and what feels doable. That might mean trying a few techniques early on and adjusting based on how helpful they are.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require video, which can be useful for quick skill reviews or weekday breaks from work.
