01About Jason
Jason Stary is a counselor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. He draws on ten years of experience and aims to meet people where they are. He listens for values and strengths and works with each person to set realistic goals.
He uses straightforward techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to teach skills people can use between sessions.
Background and approach
He also brings in ideas from attachment-based and client-centered work to strengthen relationships and emotional awareness. When faith is important to a client, he can incorporate Christian perspectives into the conversation. Jason favors short, practical exercises alongside longer conversations.
He teaches DBT-style skills for managing intense emotions and ACT strategies to clarify values and take meaningful action. Sessions often include skill practice, gentle reflection, and concrete steps for daily life. His background includes individual and adolescent work since 2015 and leading group sessions in an intensive outpatient program since 2022.
He shares that he has personal experience with depression and anxiety, which informs his approach and empathy. He focuses on creating a nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be named and worked through. People looking for help with caregiving stress, communication or fatherhood issues, guilt and shame, or a sense of emptiness will find a practical, values-focused style.
Jason works from Kansas as a Kansas LCPC and offers a mix of conversation and hands-on skills to help people move forward.

How Jason Brings Evidence-Based Skills Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and feeling stuck because it emphasizes action over avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and build confidence. It is often chosen for stress, anxiety, and depression because it includes clear exercises and homework.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Jason works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, values, and daily life. He often blends ACT, CBT, attachment ideas, and DBT skills to fit what a client needs rather than following a single method exactly.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy practical. Video lets people read nonverbal cues and work more like an office visit. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in fits a lunch break. Live chat and text messaging let clients send short updates, practice skills between sessions, or have ongoing support without scheduling a full call. These options are intended to provide flexibility so therapy can fit real life and help maintain consistency over time.
