About Jared

Jared Maloney is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with eight years of clinical experience licensed in California and New Hampshire. He works with adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship patterns, low self-worth, grief, and changes that leave them feeling stuck. Jared also lists codependency and attachment issues among the concerns he addresses.

Jared focuses on practical, conversational work. He listens to what matters most and helps people set small, usable steps. Sessions often include exploring thoughts, mapping patterns in relationships, and practicing new ways to respond. He uses exercises such as journaling, guided meditations, role-play, and somatic practices when those fit.

He draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and change unhelpful thoughts. He uses client-centered methods that let the person guide what gets worked on. Attachment-based and emotionally focused ideas help when relationship patterns and closeness feel difficult.

Jared also includes depth-oriented approaches to look at what underlying themes or meanings repeat in someone’s life. That can help when people keep repeating the same hurtful patterns. He pairs that with solution-focused work to set clear goals and build self-esteem through small achievements.

People who want coaching around life direction or clearer values can use his goal-focused work. He aims to give tools and skills people can keep using after sessions end. To begin, the site’s matching steps are used to schedule an initial meeting and decide next steps.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at patterns of closeness and separation and helps people understand how early relationship experiences shape current reactions. It can be useful for those who struggle with people-pleasing, codependent patterns, or fear of rejection.

Client-centered therapy focuses on following the person’s concerns and pacing the work around what they want to address. It supports adults who need space to name priorities and make decisions.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical steps to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It’s often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or anger problems.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify goals, try methods in session, and adjust plans based on what helps. That way the approach stays aligned with the person’s needs and preferences.

Confirm the current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel to an office. Many people find these practical benefits help them keep consistent work on relationship patterns, codependency, mood, and coping skills.
