About Jared
Jared Fuson is a licensed counselor who helps people manage anger, stress, and life changes. He brings practical, straightforward support for anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship concerns. Jared writes plainly and aims to make sessions clear and usable for everyday life.
Jared holds a Master’s degree in therapy and a bachelor’s in psychology. He is licensed as an LPCC and holds LPC-MHSP and LPC credentials, with licensure in Tennessee and Ohio.
Background and approach
He has about 12 years of clinical experience starting after college in 2012. Early in his career he worked in community mental health leading intensive outpatient substance abuse groups, doing individual counseling, and supervising Department of Child Services visits. Those roles helped him learn how to structure group work and support people through recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.
More recently he has worked full time in correctional mental health. There he developed assessment and diagnostic skills and supported people with depression, anxiety, trauma, and more complex mental health concerns. That setting sharpened his ability to stay calm and focused in stressful situations.
Jared uses a mix of practical therapies to suit each person. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, motivational interviewing, and a client-centered stance. Sessions aim to build coping skills, improve communication, and reduce reactive behavior.
He welcomes straightforward conversations about goals and next steps.

Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them. It focuses on identifying values and taking small committed steps toward them, which can reduce anger and avoidance over time.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, useful for panic, depression, and stress management.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These tools help when emotions feel overwhelming or reactions become frequent and intense.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and suggest techniques that fit. Clients can try different strategies and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online work can make regular care easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skills practice, phone sessions can be a quicker check-in, and messaging or live chat supports brief updates or between-session coaching. These options help people keep momentum, practice skills in real time, and return to sessions without a long commute.
