About Jared
Jared Fuson welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or big life changes. He aims to make the first steps feel manageable and clear. Jared is a licensed counselor working in Tennessee and Ohio with 12 years of clinical experience.
He uses straightforward conversation and practical strategies. Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and small steps that can fit into daily life. Jared draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance-based work to help people notice patterns and try new responses.
Early in his career he ran intensive outpatient substance abuse groups and provided individual counseling. That work taught him how to support people through relapse risks and strong emotions while keeping goals in view.
More recently he has worked full time in correctional mental health. There he developed assessment and diagnostic skills and worked with depression, anxiety, trauma, psychosis, and substance use concerns. Those roles shaped a calm, problem-focused style that aims to be direct and practical.
Jared combines client-centered listening with evidence-informed methods such as CBT, acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical skills, and motivational interviewing. He encourages collaboration about goals and pacing so people stay involved in the process. He invites prospective clients to take a small step and see how the approach fits their needs.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values. It can help with persistent anxiety and panic by shifting focus toward meaningful movement rather than fighting every worry. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into small parts - thoughts, feelings, and behaviors - and uses practical exercises to change patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic disorder, and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and mindful communication skills that help when emotions feel intense. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person 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. This profile does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people practice skills in the settings where difficulties happen. Licensed professionals will work with each person to shape session length and focus so therapy fits everyday life.Areas of expertise
