Jason Powell

Walking into a first session with Jason Powell, many clients notice the same thing: the pace slows, the pressure to perform lifts, and something closer to honesty becomes possible. Powell is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in New York who works with individuals and couples navigating some of the most painful and private corners of their lives — infidelity, cycles of conflict, faded intimacy, anxiety, depression, shame, and the weight of expectations carried too long alone. He also brings specialized training in sex therapy, holding space for conversations about desire, painful sex, and the quiet grief of a relationship where physical closeness has disappeared.

His clinical work is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy, an evidence-based approach centered on strengthening the emotional bonds beneath surface-level conflict. He has advanced training and supervision in EFT, which shapes how he helps people identify patterns that keep them stuck and find their way back to each other — or to themselves. He recognizes that for many clients, the inability to truly rest, to step away from constant input and let the nervous system settle, has become its own clinical concern rather than a matter of discipline.

Powell works with men, women, and older adults across individual, couples, and family contexts, and offers online sessions. His commitment in every session is the same: to meet people with authenticity, treat them as the experts in their own lives, and help them build something more honest and connected than what they came in with.
