About Jayson Brunelle
Jayson Brunelle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Connecticut who brings more than a decade of experience in clinical mental health, addiction, and Christian pastoral counseling. He approaches care with an emphasis on treating the whole person - mind, body, and spirit - integrating clinical methods with a thoughtful engagement of philosophical and theological perspectives.
His work draws from an eclectic blend of established therapies, including psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, and Gestalt approaches, applied to concerns such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, and substance and process addictions. He also addresses grief, anger, self-esteem struggles, communication problems, hoarding, and challenges that arise at the end of life, among other areas of need.
Informed by studies in philosophy and Christian theology, he emphasizes human dignity and a psycho-spiritual understanding of the self that many clients find meaningful alongside evidence-based techniques. He values the 12-Step model of recovery as a powerful resource for people working through addiction and related struggles, and he integrates spiritual themes when appropriate and welcomed by the client.
With ten years of practice, Jayson combines clinical training and pastoral experience to support individuals coping with life changes, mood disorders, compulsive behaviors, and relational difficulties, helping them pursue healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a collaborative, respectful relationship in which the therapist follows the client's lead, offering empathy and support while helping the client explore values, identity, and life purpose - useful for self-esteem, grief, and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive-compulsive tendencies; it is practical and skills-oriented, often producing measurable improvements in day-to-day functioning.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills, which can be especially helpful for mood instability, intense emotions, and difficulties with anger or impulsive behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jayson works collaboratively with clients to assess their needs, goals, and preferences and to tailor a mix of approaches that fit each person’s situation and values. That process helps clients feel engaged and invested in the work.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent care from home, work, or while managing a busy schedule. These formats offer flexibility for those with mobility or transportation limits and support continuity of treatment through life transitions, allowing clients to maintain progress even when routines change.
