About Jayson
Jayson Brunelle is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Connecticut who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, grief, and life changes. He uses straightforward conversations to help people sort out what is bothering them and find steps they can try right away.
He brings ten years of experience in clinical mental health and addiction counseling, along with a background in philosophy and Christian theology. That mix shapes a view of people as whole beings - mind, body, and spirit - and guides how he frames questions about meaning and purpose.
Background and approach
In sessions he draws on a range of practical approaches, including client-centered techniques, cognitive methods to shift unhelpful thoughts, and skills-based strategies for emotional regulation. He also incorporates ideas from existential and Jungian thinking when exploring values, identity, and deeper life questions.
Jayson has worked with people managing mood disorders, bipolar symptoms, panic and phobias, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and a variety of addictions including drug, alcohol, and process addictions. He also addresses issues like communication problems, hoarding, forgiveness, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and finding life purpose. Sessions are available in English and are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
He uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and he practices as an LPC in Connecticut.
Approaches and Online Therapy Options
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own solutions; it is useful for building trust and working through personal concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness and is especially useful for intense emotions and improving coping.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and the issues at hand, then recommend one or more methods to try. Adjustments are made along the way so the approach fits the client's needs and pace.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which gives flexibility for different routines. Video is useful for a fuller session with face-to-face connection, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quicker check-in, and text messaging supports brief follow-ups or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life while still working on recovery, mood, and day-to-day coping.
