Great to meet you. If you are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, anger, family conflict, stress, relationship challenges, substance use concerns, sleep issues, or the pressure to keep functioning while feeling stuck inside, therapy can help you slow down and begin making sense of what you are carrying. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families who want a safe, culturally sensitive, and supportive space to feel heard, understood, and empowered. I also support clients navigating LGBTQIA+ concerns, women’s issues, racial identity, trauma, grief, loss, addiction, chronic health concerns, and life stressors. My goal is to help you build practical tools for growth and healing while strengthening emotional awareness, communication, coping skills, and confidence in your ability to move forward.

Most people don't come to therapy because life is perfect. They come because they're tired of living the same painful loop and wondering when something is finally going to change. That's where I come in. I'm Jared, and I work with individuals and couples of all ages across Nevada by telehealth. I help people who feel stuck in patterns rooted in trauma, including anxiety, depression, OCD, grief, and substance use. Whether you're a single parent juggling everything, a couple working to reconnect, or someone tired of carrying it alone, I would love to help.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right addiction counselor for you

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Las Vegas

Finding addiction therapists in Las Vegas starts with understanding the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for substance use, alcohol use, drug use, gambling, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for experience that matches your goals, such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication-assisted care when a prescriber is part of your care team.

Las Vegas has a wide range of mental health therapists, which can make the search feel harder to narrow. Location may matter if you prefer in-person sessions near the Strip, Summerlin, Henderson, or another part of the area, while virtual appointments can make it easier to meet with a therapist who fits your schedule. Recovery can move in more than one direction, so it helps to look for a therapist who describes a clear, respectful approach to substance abuse and counseling. Review bios for experience with addiction treatment therapy, session structure, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before booking.

Therapy in Las Vegas can be expensive without insurance, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare addiction therapists who are accepting new patients, take a wide range of insurance plans, and offer upfront cost estimates based on your coverage. You can filter by specialty, appointment type, availability, and approach, then review profiles and book directly when you’re ready.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
