In 2013, Jason graduated with a Master of Arts in Biblical and Professional Counseling (MABC) degree from Dallas Theological Seminary. He also holds a Bachelor’s degree in Communication from East Texas Baptist University.

 

For the last 25 years, Jason has worked with children and youth of all ages. For the last 20 years, Jason has served as a leader in numerous Children’s Ministries. Jason was the Children’s Director at Gateway Baptist Church (2013-2014) in Whitehouse, Texas. He served as a lay leader at First Baptist Church in Marshall, Texas (where he worked youth and college-age children) and is currently serving with his wife, as lay leaders for the children’s ministry and Life Group Fellowship at New Covenant Church in Longview, Texas.

 

 

Jason has no doubt that the Lord has called him to work with children and families. In addition to these 

things, Jason feels he has been called on to help women who have left abusive relationships and are

 looking for a new direction in their life as well as men who are dealing with temptations 

(whatever they may be) that are unhealthy for themselves and all those around them.

 

 

He believes that although we were made perfect in God’s image, we are imperfect in our daily lives 

because of living in a fallen world. We are a work in progress and sometimes need someone to 

walk with us as we struggle through life’s trials. Jason has a passion for helping children and 

families counseling with them through some of life’s greatest struggles.

 

 

Jason is a fully trained EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) provider that can treat 

individuals with PTSD, anxiety, depression, trauma, as well as other mental health issues.

 

Other areas of focus are, but not limited to, premarital counseling, blended family issues, 

marriage/family, grief/bereavement, parenting, teenage mentoring, children who may be struggling 

at home, in school, or new and significant changes in life as they have known it. Other areas 

of focus include divorce, play or art therapy methods of interaction, attention deficit disorder, 

high functioning spectrum disorders, anxiety, working with “Tween” age children 

(7-19yrs old), depression, and spiritual issues.

 

 

Jason and his wife have been married for 23 years, have two very 

active boys (ages 20 and 13), and live in the East Texas area.

 

 

"No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; 

He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. 

But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it."

– 1 Corinthians 10:13 (NIV)

 

"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
