About Jason

Jason Scrivner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) whose practice emphasizes cognitive behavioral techniques alongside complementary approaches.

Background and approach

With 19 years of clinical experience and nearly 25 years in human services overall, he combines practical strategies with empathy to address a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, addictions, and challenges with self-esteem and anger.

He also works with clients facing relationship and family problems, grief, bipolar and mood concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Jason integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

His aim is to help clients build coping skills, increase motivation, and navigate complex emotional or behavioral issues. Clients can expect a nonjudgmental atmosphere where thoughts and feelings are explored openly and collaboratively.

Jason encourages taking the first step toward support and guides people through practical tools and conversational work that align with their goals and circumstances.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to relieve symptoms like anxiety, depression, and anger. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages values-guided action and learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while pursuing meaningful life directions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental stance to help people feel understood and develop their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve. This partnership helps tailor sessions to what the client finds most useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into daily life and maintain continuity during transitions. These formats support consistent access to a licensed professional and allow practical work on coping skills, motivation, and behavior change from wherever the client is located.
