About Jason

Jason Scrivner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 19 years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people facing trauma, grief, anxiety, and major life changes. His approach is straightforward and practical, aimed at making the first steps feel manageable for anyone seeking support.

He uses methods that help people notice what matters and act on it. That can include learning new coping skills for stress, working through low mood, or facing painful memories from abuse or loss. He also helps with relationship strain, anger, addiction concerns, and challenges tied to attention and motivation.

Sessions are set up to be open and nonjudgmental. Jason encourages clear talk about feelings and everyday patterns that get in the way. He blends goal-focused techniques with attention to the person in front of him, so the work fits each individual's life and priorities.

People who are overwhelmed by grief or who are navigating end-of-life questions will find focused support for emotional and practical concerns. Jason draws on a mix of approaches to help people build small, steady changes rather than quick fixes. He also works with those coping with caregiver stress, aging concerns, or the effects of chronic conditions.

He invites anyone who is ready to begin to take a small next step. The process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. From there he helps set clear, realistic goals and adapts the work as needs change.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that reflect those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and coping with big life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing different ways of responding. It often helps with stress, mood problems, and practical symptom management. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, accepting conversation where the person sets the pace and topics while the therapist offers understanding and reflection.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they experiment with techniques and adjust the plan when something does not fit, so the work stays relevant to daily life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from more convenient locations. Some formats also support shorter check-ins or phone-based conversations when camera use or bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and client-centered practices to the online setting so sessions focus on meaningful goals and practical steps.
