Getting to know Jason Shatzer

Hi there, I'm Jason! As a veteran, therapist, and human being I resonate deeply with the archetype of the “wounded healer". I understand trauma and the seriousness of life's challenges not just clinically, but personally. I am assured in my professional capacity that I can provide you with the high level of care and support that you deserve. My focus Real conversations often lead to real change. Whether you are struggling with unresolved trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, relational issues, or everyday stress that has simply become unbearable I strive to provide you with unconditional support while you gain awareness, understanding, and confidence in yourself and your ability to thrive. My approach My approach to therapy is extremely client-centered with elements of existentialism, logotherapy, and solution-focused support to help each unique individual navigate their distinctive challenges. Moreover, I confidently provide trauma-informed care, often aided by EMDR, to those who are ready to address trauma in a direct and intentional manner. My communication style I prioritize clear and empathetic communication even when confronting uncomfortable issues. I am an active listener and someone who can reflect and question in a way that helps facilitate deeper understanding and insight. I've been told that therapy with me doesn't always feel like "traditional, canned response, or overtly clinical" therapy. My journey to mental healthcare Becoming a therapist was never my aspiration or something I even considered before I was challenged by my own traumas, addiction, and severe, life-changing circumstances. In my own hardships and personal/professional development I found that we are resilient beyond comprehend. We are capable of growth, healing, and finding lasting change. My goals for you We can directly or indirectly unpack and peel back whatever layers of life you need.
