About Jared
Jared Fuson is an LPCC and LPC-MHSP licensed in Tennessee and Ohio with 12 years of clinical experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, addictions, bipolar concerns, relationship strain, trauma and life changes. He also focuses on issues such as codependency, communication problems, fatherhood challenges, first responder and veteran concerns, and financial stressors.
Jared began counseling work after college in 2012 and completed a master’s degree in therapy. Early roles included community mental health where he led intensive outpatient substance abuse groups, provided individual therapy, and supervised Department of Children’s Services visits. Those years shaped his practical approach to crises and substance-related problems.
He later moved into correctional mental health as a full-time clinician. There he developed experience with diagnostics and assessment, and worked with a range of presentations including depression, anxiety, psychosis, and trauma. That setting deepened his skills in structured intervention and safety-focused care.
Jared uses a mix of approaches in sessions. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Sessions tend to emphasize clear goals, practical skills, and straightforward conversation about patterns that fuel anger or addictive behaviors.
People who come to him usually want concrete ways to handle anger, reduce reactive behavior, and improve communication. He invites clients to set short-term goals and learn skills they can practice between sessions. To start, readers are asked to use the site matching steps and schedule a first session.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying values and taking small committed steps toward them while accepting difficult thoughts. It helps people reduce the argument with their emotions and focus on actions that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anger, anxiety, and mood problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) builds skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to reduce reactivity and improve relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jared will collaborate with clients to see which methods fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. Early sessions often involve straightforward goal-setting and trialing a skill set to see what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, allow shorter check-ins, or avoid travel time. Some formats can reduce the need to be on camera or require less bandwidth, which helps when scheduling during a lunch break or a commute pause. Jared uses evidence-based techniques that translate into exercises and practice between sessions to support steady progress.
