About Jared
Jared Maloney is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with eight years of clinical experience who draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to help people navigate stress, mood challenges, relationship concerns, substance issues, and attention-related struggles such as ADHD.
Background and approach
He emphasizes a person-centered stance that invites clients to lead the direction of therapy while integrating practical strategies when useful, blending depth work with goal-oriented tools to support meaningful change. Jared’s work attends to emotion regulation, self-esteem, grief, trauma, and patterns that arise in relationships and family systems.
He also addresses addictions, bipolar mood concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, and a wide set of life transitions and career questions. His additional focus areas include attachment-related dynamics, codependency and communication difficulties, caregiver stress, dissociation, and issues related to guilt, shame, and forgiveness.
Licensed in California and New Hampshire, Jared uses techniques from attachment-based therapy, client-centered approaches, CBT, emotionally-focused therapy, and existential perspectives. He incorporates experiential tools such as journaling, mindfulness, somatic exercises, and role-play when appropriate to help clients build lasting coping skills and clarify values and direction.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of connection and how early relationship experiences shape emotional responses; online sessions can explore those attachment dynamics and build new ways of relating in present relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and guiding the conversation by the client's priorities, allowing the therapist to follow the client's lead while supporting self-discovery and change over phone or video.Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then combine depth-oriented and skills-based methods as needed so the plan fits the individual rather than fitting the person to one technique.
Online options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility for scheduling and for choosing how to engage on different days. These formats allow people to access a licensed professional from where they are, maintain continuity through life transitions, and try different communication styles to see what best supports progress.
