Austin Jarrell

Austin Jarrell is a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) with 13 years of experience. She blends practical therapy methods to help people facing stress, anxiety, anger, addiction concerns, and life transitions. Austin writes plainly and talks directly about real-life problems. She approaches each person as an individual rather than using one fixed method for everyone.

She began with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and earned a Master of Arts in Community Counseling from Austin Peay State University in 2010. Her background includes work with the Department of Children’s Services and hands-on case management that involved home-based supports and intensive family work. She has provided individual and group counseling to people recovering from substance use concerns.

Austin primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy while drawing on Client-Centered and Motivational Interviewing techniques when helpful. In sessions she focuses on clear goals, practical steps, and building skills that can be used between meetings. Expect straightforward conversation, active problem solving, and collaboration on what matters most to you.

She often helps people manage family stress, parenting challenges, communication problems, control and impulsivity issues, and struggles with self-esteem and guilt. Austin also supports those working through workplace stress, caregiving strain, and questions of life purpose. Her style emphasizes realistic plans and changes that fit everyday life.

How these approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's pace to build trust and clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and supports commitment when motivation is mixed.

Choosing the right blend of methods is a joint project. The therapist will discuss what feels useful and adapt methods to match each person's goals and preferences. Sessions focus on small, testable steps so clients can see what helps between meetings.

Session logistics and formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support consistent work on skills like managing anger, coping with cravings, improving communication, and changing unhelpful thinking patterns. Licensed professionals will work with clients to shape a plan that fits their life and goals.
