Professional statement

Jason Etting, MA, LMHC, is a therapist based in Wakefield, Rhode Island, who works with adults seeking greater clarity, connection, and balance in their lives. He specializes in supporting men through individual therapy and men’s therapy groups, helping clients navigate stress, relationship concerns, life transitions, and emotional challenges with honesty and intention. Jason also welcomes women into his practice and provides thoughtful, individualized care tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals.

Group work is a central part of Jason’s practice. His men’s therapy groups offer a supportive and grounded environment where participants can connect authentically, share openly, and feel less alone in the struggles they carry. Through guided discussion and shared experience, clients build emotional awareness, strengthen communication skills, and develop greater resilience while benefiting from the encouragement and accountability that group settings provide.

Jason’s therapeutic approach is collaborative, practical, and growth-oriented. He integrates evidence-based techniques with an emphasis on self-reflection, emotional regulation, and meaningful, long-term change. Clients often describe his style as steady, engaged, and down-to-earth, creating a space where meaningful work can unfold without judgment or pressure.

Jason provides therapy in-office in Wakefield, Rhode Island, as well as through secure telehealth sessions and in nature-based “Walk & Talk” therapy. These flexible options allow clients to choose the setting that feels most comfortable and productive for them. Through Rhode Island Walk & Talk Therapy, he supports adults in building healthier relationships, reducing stress, and developing a stronger sense of grounding and direction in daily life.


Message to clients

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and you don’t need to have everything figured out before we begin. My role is to meet you where you are with compassion, honesty, and practical support so we can focus on what feels most important to you right now. You can expect a space that is respectful, grounded, and free of judgment. I will listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and help you explore patterns that may be getting in your way. Therapy can be challenging at times, but I approach that work with steadiness and care so you feel supported throughout the process.

My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel understood, more connected to yourself, and better equipped to navigate your relationships and daily life. Whether we meet individually, in a group setting, online, or outdoors through Walk & Talk sessions, my goal is to help you move toward meaningful, lasting change.
