About Jaisen
Jaisen Thomas is an LPC who brings four years of professional counseling experience and nearly two decades of pastoral counseling to his practice.
Background and approach
He works with people facing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, trauma and abuse, changes in life circumstances, addictions, grief, mood disorders, and challenges with self-esteem, intimacy, sleep, and eating.
In sessions he emphasizes listening and mutual respect, aiming to make clients feel heard and valued as they explore practical strategies and insight. His clinical approach draws on evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and system-informed models to address patterns of thought, emotion regulation, and interpersonal dynamics.
Thomas frames starting therapy as a courageous step toward change and focuses on collaborative goal-setting so clients can pursue growth at a sustainable pace. Licensed in New Jersey and Texas, he integrates pastoral experience with clinical training to support people through transitions, grief, addiction recovery efforts, caregiving stress, identity-related concerns, and questions about life purpose.
How specific approaches translate to online therapy
CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve coping; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and stress management. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills to help with intense emotions, self-control, and relationship conflicts. These methods are presented in clear, practical steps that translate well to remote sessions where skill practice and homework can be reviewed together.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and he works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, concerns, and personal style. Clients and therapist regularly revisit progress and adapt techniques so treatment remains aligned with needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent support during life transitions, caregiving responsibilities, or when in-person visits are impractical, while allowing for ongoing skills practice and real-time problem-solving with a licensed professional.
