Jason Amyx, LPCC

Jason Amyx is an LPCC practicing in Kentucky with 12 years of experience in mental health settings. He began his career working as a treatment director and therapist at a mental health facility. He has worked with clients across a wide range of concerns and age groups. Jason keeps a straightforward, warm approach in sessions and aims to help people make meaningful changes in daily life.

He commonly helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and abuse, grief, and addiction. He also addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, eating and body image concerns, and career or life-transition questions. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment matters, adoption and foster care issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended-family dynamics, and caregiver stress.

Jason’s style is interactive and personable. He uses humor when appropriate and balances that with direct feedback and challenges designed to move people forward. He describes his clinical work as combining client-centered ideas with cognitive-behavioral and emotion-focused tools, plus elements drawn from dialectical approaches and Jungian perspectives.

In sessions he adapts dialogue and plans to fit each person’s situation. He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and avoiding stigmatizing labels. Jason aims to help people change everyday thoughts and habits that keep them stuck, and to build practical skills for coping and growth.

People who want a therapist who is candid, encouraging, and hands-on may find his approach helpful. He welcomes international clients and conducts work in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to his availability.

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy is about focusing on the person's experience and building a respectful, collaborative relationship. It helps when someone needs a listening space and guidance tailored to their priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and everyday habit change.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness. It can be useful for people who need structure and clear strategies for coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration shapes the focus and pacing of sessions rather than locking someone into one single model.

Check the session formats before booking since specific delivery methods are not listed on the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or let someone avoid using video when they prefer audio only. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skill practice to work well in remote sessions when that option is chosen.
