Parents often decide to bring their child to see someone when there has been a recent life event that may have contributed to increased feelings of sadness, worry, or anger. Or, maybe you have noticed a change in behaviors at school or home that have impacted their relationships with friends and family. I have worked with children and adolescents in different settings for over twenty years. I have experience in providing services for stress, anxiety, ADHD, autism, depression, grief, substance usage, and anger.

Crisis may be unwelcome but often brings important self-knowledge. I am a certified Jungian analyst with many years’ experience in addressing a wide variety of issues, including trauma, anxiety and depression; divorce and relationship issues; mental illness in the family, and grief. If you find yourself repeating unsatisfying patterns with others, if you’re wondering why the same kinds of disappointments come up time and time again, I will work with you to take a step back and get the bigger picture.

Life offers us many moments to relish if we can remain present. However, living in the moment is easier said than done when we face challenges. Barriers from unresolved conflicts in the past and fear and anxiety about the future prevent us from embracing the here and now. Jason uses a combination of psychotherapy and action methods to explore solutions and help clients to heal past hurts. His focus specializes in relationships, healing trauma, life transitions, LGBTQ+, and addiction services.

Whatever comes up during our sessions, there is light at the end of the tunnel. I have been a witness to it, and I can tell you it is healing. The important element in my sessions is that we have trust and a connection to work together. That is why I offer no-charge consultations, so we can establish this when we first speak. Following both modern therapeutic methods as well as more global and Indigenous modalities, I guide others to un-cover what they come to know. During our sessions, as we discover more about you, this information informs me to choose the best approach/method that will guide you while you uncover your truth.

It’s said that recovery is an inside job. We begin by distancing ourselves from the destructive forces that are bent on killing us—if you understand what I’m talking about you’re in the right place. Once addiction loses its grip on us we gain the freedom to access our own inner wisdom and let life’s challenges become our teachers. Free from the influence of mood and mind altering substances we become empowered to make choices not based on the immediate need to escape our emotions, but rather aligned with our deepest desires for ourselves. Through this process you can begin to re-write the narrative of your past.

Working on Rikers Island and at a wo men's prison, crisis counseling after 9/11 and Hurricane Sandy, training at Columbia University, and my own personal tragedies have prepared me for this.
You are not the worst thing you have ever done. This was a frequent refrain, spoken by inmates and staff during my 15 years working on Rikers Island. Patients who had committed the most horrific of acts - they too sought to be understood and afforded a chance to reenter the community. If we are being honest, we all have regrets, and most of us carry feelings of guilt and shame - proof you are hu man. These hard feelings serve a purpose, requiring minutes, hours and sometimes even longer days of soul-searching - helping us to learn the lessons, and to do better in our lives ahead.

We will approach the possibly unconscious core roots of many issues that you carry and which contribute to distressing psychological symptoms, including self-defeating behaviors and relationship patterns or your reliance on maladaptive coping.
As a psychoanalytically-oriented clinician who works from a depth perspective, my foremost aim is to develop an open, compassionate, and trusting relationship with you so that you feel free to share with me those issues that most burden you - those issues for which you need careful, caring and respectful attention. I have worked mostly with adults in individual, couples, and group psychotherapy who have struggled with anxiety, depression, panic, trauma (including childhood abuse and neglect), PTSD, and substance use issues. I've worked with and I am sensitive to the needs of people of diverse identities.

Not accepting new clients
“Taking refuge” is a phrase in Buddhism that invites a world-weary self to find relief. From the confusion of life’s dramas and the pull to get swept up in them. Taking refuge requires building trustworthiness through a softening that happens over time in relationship. That is one reason psychotherapy is effective: The trustworthiness built by therapist and client allows for a depth of self to be known and expressed. Such encounters in turn build trustworthiness within oneself, for as our capacities enlarge, we enlarge. In finding solace within, we learn to live less fearfully, participate in relationship with authority and ease.

Male Therapists
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
