Jared Arthur, LPC-MHSP

Jared Arthur is a licensed counselor based in Tennessee with 10 years of professional experience supporting people through major life challenges. He holds the LPC-MHSP credential - Licensed Professional Counselor, Mental Health Service Provider - which reflects his training to work with a wide range of emotional and relational concerns.

Jared works with individuals facing stress and anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues related to LGBT identity. He also supports clients dealing with life transitions, parenting and fatherhood concerns, intimacy and body image issues, eating and bipolar disorders, and the emotional impacts of chronic illness and caregiving. Jared integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques and coaching to help clients build coping skills and make practical changes.

He approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and he adapts dialogue and treatment planning to the unique needs of every client. Jared aims to create a collaborative environment where people feel supported as they explore goals, try new strategies, and work toward a more fulfilling life. Seeking change takes courage, and he focuses on empowering clients through that process.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Jared uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and healing. One approach emphasizes cognitive and behavioral skills - helping clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and experiment with new behaviors to reduce stress and improve mood. Another approach is trauma-informed care - a framework that recognizes the impact of traumatic experiences and prioritizes safety, pacing, and stabilization while addressing traumatic memories and symptoms. Jared also integrates coaching-oriented strategies to set concrete goals and track progress when clients want focused change and skill development.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Jared collaborates with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, then adjusts methods over time so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video or phone let clients meet from home, while live chat and text-based messaging provide options for shorter check-ins and ongoing support between meetings. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care around busy schedules, geographic limits, or mobility concerns while working with licensed professionals and therapists to pursue meaningful change.
