We talk a lot about loving Jesus.
But Christianity was never tested by loving Jesus.

It was tested by loving Judas.
Loving people who disappoint you.
Loving people who wound you.
Loving people who do not change.

As a Christian counselor, I see this struggle daily.
Clients torn between faith and boundaries.
Grace and self respect.
Forgiveness and healing.

You can love like Christ without abandoning yourself.
You can forgive without reconciling.
You can hold compassion and still protect your nervous system.

Faith and therapy are not enemies.
They work best together.

If this resonates, you are not broken.
You are growing.

Five years sober today.

This didn’t happen because I suddenly became stronger.
It happened because I stopped trying to do it alone.

Sobriety didn’t fix everything.
It gave me clarity.
It gave me presence.
It gave me the ability to sit with hard moments instead of escaping them.

Addiction isn’t a character flaw.
It’s often a nervous system that learned survival before safety.

Five years later, I still take this one day at a time.
I still use the same skills I now teach others
regulation, honesty, accountability, and compassion.

If you’re early in recovery
thinking about recovery
or quietly wondering if things could be different

You’re not weak.
You’re not behind.
And you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

This work is personal for me.
And it’s an honor to walk alongside others who are ready to start or restart their healing.

Grateful for today.
Grateful for growth.
Grateful for five years.

Anxiety is not the problem
The fight with anxiety is

If you have ever felt exhausted by your thoughts
If you spend all day trying to avoid triggers
If your mind is constantly planning how to make anxiety go away

This is for you

In Acceptance and Commitment Therapy we use a metaphor called Uncle Charlie
Anxiety shows up uninvited
And instead of enjoying your life you end up reorganizing everything around it

Avoiding situations
Replaying conversations
Numbing out
Overthinking every feeling

And the more you fight anxiety
The bigger it feels

ACT teaches something different
You do not have to like anxiety
You do not have to agree with it
You do not have to wait for it to leave

You can learn how to live your life even when anxiety is present

At The Well Counseling & Consultation I help Texas adults break out of the cycle of fear avoidance and mental burnout using trauma informed therapy including ACT Brainspotting and Accelerated Resolution Therapy

You deserve a life that is bigger than anxiety

If this resonated with you
Save this
Share it with someone who needs to hear it
And reach out when you are ready

You are not broken
You are human
And help is available

Many people come to therapy feeling discouraged.
They have talked about their experiences.
They understand what happened.
They know the patterns.
And yet the anxiety, anger, numbness, or emotional shutdown is still there.

That is not a personal failure.

Trauma does not live only in thoughts or words.
It lives in the nervous system.
When the body stays stuck in survival mode, insight alone is not enough to create real change.

At The Well Counseling & Consultation, I work from a trauma informed lens that focuses on both the brain and the body.
I primarily use Brainspotting alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients process what their system has been holding onto, not just talk about it.

This approach can be especially helpful for veterans, first responders, and adults who have spent years pushing through stress, responsibility, or high pressure roles.
It is also effective for people who feel emotionally stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or exhausted despite having tried therapy before.

Healing does not mean reliving everything or forcing yourself to talk when you are not ready.
It means creating safety, slowing the nervous system, and allowing your brain to do what it was designed to do when given the right support.

If this resonates with you, you are not alone.
And there are options beyond simply coping.

My name is Jason Williamson, I am a Marine Corps veteran and a former police officer and EMT intermediate and 911 services in the Houston area of Texas. I have suffered from PTSD, panic disorder, and alcoholism in my past and overcome them through therapy I’m here to show you how to do the same

Just a joke everyone. I am a therapist that does not believe you need a Dsm-5 diagnosis to seek counseling. For those that have a diagnosis. That is something you have, it’s not who you are. Remember that.

Chronic pain is real.
And it is not just in your body.

What you feel is the surface.
Underneath is a nervous system that learned to stay on high alert after stress, trauma, injury, or long term strain.

When the brain stays in protection mode, pain can persist even after tissues heal. That does not mean the pain is imagined. It means the alarm system never powered down.

This is where recovery begins.

Pain Reprocessing Therapy works by helping the brain relearn safety, reduce threat responses, and quiet pain pathways that no longer serve you. When your response to pain changes, the nervous system follows, and symptoms can soften.

This approach is especially powerful for veterans and first responders who have spent years pushing through pain, stress, and survival mode.

You are not broken.
Your nervous system adapted.
And it can adapt again.

If chronic pain is controlling your life, there is a path forward.

Holiday stress reminder 🎄

The holidays can bring joy, connection, and meaning
They can also bring stress, tension, and overwhelm

One of the most helpful tools this time of year is remembering the difference between what is in your control and what is out of your control

✨ Out of your control
• Other people’s reactions or moods
• Family dynamics or drama
• How others spend their holidays
• Shipping delays or travel disruptions
• Weather or canceled plans
• Differing opinions

✨ In your control
• Your boundaries
• Your time and schedule
• How much you spend and where
• Which events you attend
• Your self care routine
• Where you put your energy
• How you speak to and treat yourself

You do not have to fix everything
You do not have to attend everything
You do not have to please everyone

Focusing on what you can control helps reduce anxiety and protect your peace during the holidays

If this season feels heavy, you are not alone
Support and coping tools can make a real difference

💚 Be gentle with yourself this season
