About Justin

Justin Mann is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Missouri who works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, substance use challenges, trauma, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Background and approach

He also focuses on related areas such as communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, social anxiety, workplace difficulties, and men's issues. With thirteen years of clinical experience, he emphasizes addressing co-occurring concerns and the ways different struggles influence one another.

Justin uses a whole-person perspective that blends evidence-informed methods with a strengths-based, empathetic stance. He aims to help clients change patterns of thinking and behavior through practical techniques while also exploring deeper themes that affect meaning and values.

His work draws on cognitive behavioral strategies alongside existential and mindfulness-informed ideas to support symptom relief and personal growth. Clients can expect collaborative goal-setting and interventions tailored to their needs, drawing from approaches that prioritize both present-focused skill-building and thoughtful reflection about life circumstances.

Justin integrates motivational and psychodynamic elements when helpful to support lasting change and increased self-understanding.

Approaches in Online Therapy and What They Do

Justin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. CBT offers practical skills and structured exercises that can be applied to daily life. He also incorporates Existential Therapy, which invites exploration of values, meaning, and personal responsibility to help clients navigate life transitions and deeper questions about purpose and identity.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then blend techniques from different modalities to create a tailored plan that fits each person's circumstances.

Offering care online through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging gives flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy schedules and to access therapy from home or wherever clients are located within Missouri. The varied options also allow clients and therapists to choose the mode of communication that best supports progress and comfort.
