Jayson Brunelle , LPC

Jayson Brunelle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Connecticut with ten years of experience in clinical mental health, addiction, and Christian pastoral counseling. He approaches care holistically, addressing mind, body, and spirit while drawing on an eclectic mix of therapies such as psychodynamic work, cognitive-behavioral techniques, person-centered methods, and Gestalt interventions. As an LPC Jayson holds a professional license to provide counseling services and brings an academic background in philosophy and Christian theology to his clinical perspective, which informs his emphasis on human dignity and vocation.

Jayson integrates evidence-based strategies with a psycho-spiritual lens, guiding people through issues including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, addictions, obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic, personality-related concerns, and problems with self-esteem and life purpose. He values the practical structure of the 12-Step model for addiction recovery and appreciates its historical and philosophical roots, noting how some clients find it a meaningful complement to therapeutic work.

In practice he works with co-occurring conditions and a wide range of behavioral and emotional struggles, offering therapeutic attention to communication difficulties, forgiveness work, end-of-life and hospice concerns, hoarding, process addictions, and social anxiety. His style blends respect for each person’s inner life with clinically grounded interventions aimed at helping individuals find more effective ways to cope, relate, and pursue purposeful living.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Jayson Brunelle

Jayson uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person’s own goals and values guide the work - this approach helps with self-esteem, life purpose, and relational concerns by emphasizing empathy and the client’s innate capacity for growth. He also employs cognitive behavioral therapy, a practical approach that identifies and shifts unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and compulsive patterns. In addition, dialectical behavior therapy offers concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for mood instability, anger, and co-occurring addictive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jayson collaborates with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts methods over time so the work fits the individual rather than forcing a single model on every case.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for people managing busy schedules, mobility limits, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to practice new skills between sessions while still receiving guidance from a licensed professional who tailors treatment to the client’s evolving needs.
