About Justin
Justin Blake is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. He works with concerns like grief, career strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem. He also supports men navigating issues tied to aging, illness, caregiving, and isolation.
He approaches sessions with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Conversations are shaped around each person’s needs rather than a fixed script. Justin aims to tailor the goals and pacing so they fit a client’s real life and priorities.
With three years as a licensed clinical social worker, he has practical experience in counseling across a range of concerns. That time includes helping people cope with bereavement, manage work stress, and process the effects of trauma and domestic violence.
He also works with people facing medical issues such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and traumatic brain injury. His background includes supporting older adults and addressing aging-related challenges.
Sessions focus on clear, usable steps rather than jargon. Justin encourages small experiments between meetings, check-ins about progress, and regular reviews of goals. He acknowledges that beginning therapy takes courage and aims to make the process straightforward and collaborative.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Justin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people address stress, anxiety, grief, and trauma. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Another approach centers on building coping skills for strong emotions and improving problem-solving around career or relationship stress.Choosing the right approach is often part of early sessions. The therapist works together with the client to clarify goals, try different techniques, and adjust plans based on what feels useful. That collaborative process helps match methods to a person’s situation and preferences.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists can adapt exercises and between-session tasks to work well in remote sessions, and they will discuss how to shape meetings so they fit everyday life without adding burden.
