Sometimes life feels like you’re trapped in the same patterns, replaying old pains, and unsure how to move forward. I’m Jason McDermott — I help people who feel stuck under the weight of past trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, or addiction begin to reclaim clarity, steadiness, and hope.

​

I blend EMDR, CBT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic insights to gently guide you through what’s hard so you don’t stay there. My style is warm and grounded — I aim to make therapy feel safe, human, and real. Clients often say they begin to feel understood, more connected to themselves, and empowered to take steps forward.

​

If this resonates, I invite you to reach out. Together, we’ll discover what it looks like for you to move forward — at your own pace, with more ease, more balance, and more self-trust.
