Jason Brown LPC-S
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, CMHC, CCATP-CA
While I am not a Sports Psychologist I do enjoy working with athletes of all ages, sports, and levels of competition. Dealing with the pressure of success on the field or court, coming back from an injury, changing teams, and making decisions about the future can all be overwhelming. Performance anxiety and fear of failure often holds many great athletes from being at the top of their game. Let's work together to overcome these obstacles and help you be mentally prepared to play the game and compete at the level you want.
12 Years Experience
Online in Abilene, TX
Abilene is a West Texas city home to Dyess Air Force Base—host of a B-1 Lancer bomber wing—as well as three Christian universities: Hardin-Simmons University, Abilene Christian University, and McMurry University, giving the city a distinctive identity anchored by military service and faith-based education. The strong evangelical Christian cultural context shapes how mental health is discussed and accessed in the community, with many residents preferring faith-integrated therapy or pastoral counseling as a primary mode of support. Military and veteran mental health needs—particularly trauma, PTSD, and family stress—are a significant part of the Abilene therapy landscape, and the city's position in remote West Texas means that access to specialist care can require telehealth or significant travel. Common therapy concerns include faith and mental health, military service and transition stress, anxiety, depression, and the challenges of living in a close-knit, religiously conservative community in an isolated regional city.
