About Jason
Jason Scrivner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Alabama with 19 years of clinical experience. He helps people who are carrying guilt, shame, anxiety, depression, trauma, and problems with self-esteem and motivation. He lists work with ADHD, addiction, relationship and family concerns, and issues linked to grief and life transitions.
Jason focuses on straightforward conversation. He listens to what people say about their actions, beliefs, and relationships. He encourages naming painful feelings and noticing how they affect daily life. Sessions are meant to be practical and real rather than abstract.
His approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with client-centered and mindfulness methods. He uses these tools to help people notice unhelpful thinking, try different responses, and make values-based choices. Motivational Interviewing is one way he supports people who are unsure about change.
Jason has worked in human services for nearly 25 years, with almost two decades in clinical roles. That background includes caring for people after trauma and helping with anger, substance issues, and low confidence. He brings that experience to conversations about guilt and shame without promising any single outcome.
People who choose to work with him typically do focused, talk-based sessions that look at thoughts, behaviors, and small practical steps. He aims to help clients sort out what matters to them and what choices they might try next.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting those thoughts dictate actions. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward those values even when discomfort shows up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and tests practical ways to change unhelpful patterns. Both approaches are useful for anxiety, depression, trauma-related reactions, and persistent guilt or shame.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process is collaborative and may involve trying different techniques and reviewing what helps most.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people use mindfulness exercises and behavioral experiments from wherever they are, which can help apply new skills between sessions.
