About Jared

Jared Maloney is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. He focuses on helping people manage thoughts and emotions so daily life feels more manageable. Jared often works with concerns such as anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, relationship struggles, and codependency.

He brings eight years of clinical experience to sessions and balances practical tools with deeper reflection. Jared uses approaches that center the client and pay attention to attachment patterns. He also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and shift unhelpful thinking.

Sessions tend to mix goal-focused work with an exploration of meaning and personal history. Jared may introduce journaling, guided meditations, role-play, mindfulness, or somatic exercises to build coping skills. He also offers coaching-style support for people who want clearer direction or stronger routines.

His style is collaborative; clients help set the agenda and choose what feels most useful. Jared emphasizes building resources people can rely on long after therapy ends. He aims to reduce distress and increase confidence through steady, practical steps.

Jared holds LMFT credentials in both New Hampshire and California and works in English. He does not accept international clients. To begin, prospective clients follow an intake pathway to match with a therapist and schedule sessions according to availability.

How attachment, client-centered work, and CBT translate online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current responses. In practice this means noticing patterns people bring into relationships and gently testing new ways of connecting and responding. Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own priorities and pace, giving space for the client to lead discussions and set goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) zeroes in on thoughts and behaviors, teaching clear strategies to reduce symptoms like anxiety or insomnia.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Jared will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust over time. The aim is to find tools and perspectives that feel useful and realistic for day-to-day life.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let clients use tools like guided meditations, journaling homework, and in-session role-play in ways that suit their routine. Ask about scheduling and technical details when you match with a therapist to confirm what will work best for you.
