About Jason

Jason Amyx is an LPCC with 12 years of clinical experience practicing in Kentucky.

Background and approach

He has served in leadership and direct care roles at a mental health facility and has supported people facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy challenges, parenting and career stressors, and mood disorders.

His background also includes work with attachment and adoption topics, body image and eating concerns, caregiver stress, and other complex presentations. His style is warm and interactive, blending humor with direct, goal-oriented work.

He draws on cognitive behavioral methods alongside client-centered and dialectical techniques, as well as elements of emotion-focused and Jungian approaches, and adapts conversations and plans to each person's needs. Jason emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while challenging clients to grow toward their goals.

He accepts English-speaking clients in Kentucky and also works with international clients via remote sessions. Prospective clients who are ready to begin can follow the intake steps to match and schedule sessions according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Jason blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in ways that translate well to remote work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, and it often includes practical tools and homework to practice between sessions. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and builds a collaborative, empathic relationship so clients feel heard and supported while they explore their goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with clients to determine which methods - and which mix of skills and perspectives - best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options allow scheduling around work, family, and geographic constraints while keeping therapy consistent and convenient for people living in Kentucky and beyond.
