Getting to know Jason Duenas

I get it - sometimes, you just feel bad, and life isn't going how you want. No one should face the struggle alone, and you don't have to either. As a licensed counselor with a Master's in Professional Counseling from Liberty University and over a decade of experience practicing in two states, I have worked with hundreds of clients through some of the same issues you are experiencing. I have walked with people through their darkest valleys and have shared in the joy when they've come to see some light break through the clouds. It would be a privilege to walk with you on your journey.

What should a new client know about working with you?

First sessions are known as intake sessions. We know it is awkward meeting a stranger for the first time, so we do our best to make these sessions as casual and comfortable as possible. The session is approximately 50 minutes long. During the first part of the session, the counselor will go over expectations and approaches to counseling. This session is where you get to know more of the therapist’s approach to counseling and get an idea of what to expect through the process of therapy. The counselor also will cover some logistics, including initial paperwork, informed consent, privacy, and practice policies. The second part of the intake session is a more fluid conversation where the counselor gets to know you. This session is where you discuss your background, what brings you into counseling, and begin identifying and setting goals so the therapeutic process can start.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Because each person has different issues and goals for counseling, it will differ depending on the individual. We meet people where they are now and discuss what they want from the counseling experience. There is no long list of ‘have to dos’ – all you have to do is show up. After about 2-4 sessions, you will get a feel of how the rhythm of therapy goes. You’re not coming for a lesson, TED talk, or class. We’re not going to tell you what to do. Counseling is collaborative, and much of it is you learning about yourself through internal exploration and then seeing the path forward.
