Jason Williamson, LPC

Jason Williamson brings insights shaped by nearly two decades of public service in the military and state government to his work in counseling. He moved into the counseling field motivated by personal experience and a desire to help others navigate challenges. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and he is a Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor who later became a Licensed Professional Counselor. The LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor - indicates formal training and licensure to provide mental health counseling.

His clinical focus began with substance use concerns and has grown to include anxiety, depression and trauma. He works with a range of concerns including stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem issues, and depressive symptoms. Additional focus areas include guilt and shame, life purpose, men's issues, veteran and armed forces issues, mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress. He approaches change holistically and believes clients are the experts on their own lives, often benefitting from a different perspective to move forward.

Clinically he primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while integrating Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and traditional talk therapy to tailor treatment to each person. Outside of his professional work he prioritizes time with family and enjoys outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking and skiing, plus what he calls wind-therapy on his Harley.
