About Jared
Jared Maloney is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in California. He focuses on attachment-informed work to help people understand how early connections shape current relationships and emotional patterns. Jared draws on practical strategies to ease anxiety, manage moods, and address addiction and grief.
He uses client-centered techniques to follow each person's priorities and to build trust in the room. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps him and clients spot unhelpful thoughts and practice new ways of responding.
Background and approach
Emotionally-Focused and existential ideas guide conversations about meaning, purpose, and closeness. Jared has eight years of clinical experience between California and New Hampshire licensure. He has worked with people facing stress, depression, bipolar symptoms, relationship and intimacy challenges, and substance use concerns.
He also supports those dealing with attachment issues, caregiver strain, body image, and codependency. In sessions he uses a mix of talk-based work and experiential tools. Clients may try journaling, guided meditation, role-play, dream reflection, and simple body-awareness exercises.
These methods are chosen to fit each person's needs rather than applied as a one-size-fits-all plan. Jared also offers coaching-style help for career decisions and life direction. The aim is to leave with practical skills that people can use day to day.
He encourages a collaborative approach where goals are agreed on together.

Online support
Attachment and Practical Strategies Online
Jared commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds influence current feelings and relationship patterns; this helps people understand why they react a certain way and how to build more stable connections. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, where conversations are guided by the person's priorities and the therapist follows their lead to address what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another tool he uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and practice concrete behavior changes that reduce anxiety and improve mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jared collaborates with each person to try methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. He will discuss options, adjust techniques over time, and co-create a plan so therapy feels useful and attainable.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick updates, journaling exercises, or when writing helps the person process thoughts. These options help people fit therapy into work, family, and busy days while still accessing consistent support from a licensed professional.
