About Jason

Jason Scrivner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 19 years of clinical experience. He provides direct, practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and midlife shifts. He speaks plainly and meets people where they are in the moment.

He focuses on trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, addictions, and coping with life changes. He also works with concerns tied to relationships, grief, bipolar mood issues, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, eating concerns, and family problems.

In sessions he aims to make a room that feels open and nonjudgmental. He listens first, then helps clients notice patterns and try different steps. That may include practical exercises to shift thoughts, or mindfulness practices to manage stress.

Jason uses several approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered methods. He blends techniques to match what a person needs rather than following a single script. Over his career he has applied these methods in many settings across Alabama.

Jason encourages people to take the small first step toward change. He invites straightforward conversation about goals and obstacles. He works with each person to set realistic next steps and track progress between sessions.

Using therapy approaches in online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions that match those values. It’s useful when life changes or uncertainty make choices feel hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns of thinking and testing practical changes in behavior to reduce anxiety or depression. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so the person sets the pace and goals of the work.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, needs, and preferences and then recommend methods to try. That collaboration aims to match techniques to what actually helps rather than using one fixed style.

Confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. In general, online care can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if they prefer, depending on the supported formats. A licensed professional will discuss practical arrangements and how to shape sessions to your schedule and goals.
