I really enjoy working with children, adolescents, and young adults. I love helping others realize their strengths and focus on reaching their goals. I often approach therapy with the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools although I am able to incorporate other interventions as needed. Providing a warm and inviting environment where individuals can feel safe and comfortable is very important to me in treatment. Christian faith-based therapy is something else I provide when clients want to utilize their spirituality in their treatment.

My speciality is working with clients who are navigating depression, anxiety, grief, adjustment, interpersonal relationships, and exploring their identity. I value my ability to aid people in processing their lived experiences and navigating how to manage the harder parts of life more effectively. I believe people want to be understood ... we want to have a space where we can share the scary or uncomfortable parts of ourselves in order to understand ourselves better. I believe people need a space to process the harder parts of life to not feel so alone and to work toward living more happily. I hope I can provide you that space.

Hey, how's the day treating you so far? My name is Jason Keist and I vividly remember scouring over these therapist profiles in search of a promising fit (like, for loooong periods of time…). Eventually, after closing my browser multiple times, I found somebody who felt right for me. Accordingly, I’m writing to briefly introduce myself to help you determine whether you and I should talk more. I stand unwaveringly in my values of human dignity, safety (emotional and physical), autonomy, creativity, social justice, empathy, and compassion. Everyone deserves to be heard and seen, but we often feel invisible and misunderstood.

I am a board-certified, Registered Art Therapist and Licensed Counselor with experience working with children, teens, and adults. Many of my clients need help dealing with feelings of anxiety, stress, depression, and low self-esteem. Using evidence-based practices, I help my clients gain understanding and develop skills to overcome a crisis or personal challenge. People develop assertive communication skills, self-regulation skills, and time-management skills and build self-confidence in the process. By guiding clients toward developing positive thoughts and behavior shifts, they can challenge old thought patterns and see results.

I believe in a person centered and narrative approach, as you are the expert of your own life. You have your own story to tell. Talking to a stranger about issues you’re facing can be extremely difficult and challenging but it shows enormous amounts of strength and bravery. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can express yourself, discuss challenges that you are facing, explore new ideas and new chapters, and to help promote growth and wellness. I want my clients to feel heard and understood.
