About Jason

Jason Gearheart is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 15 years of experience. He focuses on helping people who are dealing with addiction, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. His approach is straightforward and aimed at creating practical change for everyday life.

He makes space for people to talk about hard things without judgment. Sessions are meant to be calm and direct, so clients can name what matters and take clear steps forward.

Background and approach

Jason encourages small, doable changes that add up over time. He uses tools from Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions shape relationships and personal patterns. He also draws on client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in the client's own goals and values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of his toolkit for spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. Jason has worked across a range of concerns beyond his main specialties, including abandonment, body image, communication problems, infidelity, and isolation. He also supports people navigating kink and alternative sexual cultures and those living with intellectual disability.

His style is practical and collaborative rather than overly clinical. People who choose Jason often want a therapist who listens closely and helps set manageable goals. He frames therapy as a teamwork process.

The focus is on helping clients move from surviving to a more fulfilling life.

Online support

Emotion, choice, and change online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how feelings drive patterns in relationships and behavior; it helps people recognize key emotions and change how they respond to them. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s experience, with the therapist listening closely and following the client’s lead to build trust and clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like low mood and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, keeping the client’s priorities at the center.

Online sessions can fit into busy schedules and make consistent care easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work, while phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or for straightforward check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, tracking progress between sessions, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options give flexibility so therapy can continue even when life is busy.
