Jason Duryee
I’m Jason Duryee, a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner in California. I work with adults who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mood- or stress-related concerns, with a practical, collaborative style.
My background with service members and veterans taught me to stay practical under pressure and to treat people as partners in their care, not as a checklist.
My practice is telehealth-focused, and I especially enjoy supporting service members, veterans, and working adults who want clear treatment plans and steady follow-through.
First session
We’ll cover what’s bringing you in, your history with meds and mental health care, and what “better” looks like for you. You’ll leave with a clear sense of next steps - possible diagnoses we’re considering, initial medication or treatment options if appropriate, and a simple plan for between visits. It’s collaborative and low-pressure; you can ask anything, and we go at a pace that feels manageable.
Strengths
I bring calm, clear structure to sessions - we focus on what’s actually changing day to day, not just labels. I’m straightforward about meds, side effects, and options, and I listen closely so the plan fits your life, work, and sleep. My background with service members and veterans taught me to stay practical under pressure and to treat people as partners in their care, not as a checklist.
Ideal clients
Adults who want practical help with depression, anxiety, trauma, or sleep/stress issues and are ready to show up consistently. You don’t need to have everything figured out - just a willingness to be honest about what’s working and what isn’t, try a clear plan, and work toward feeling more stable day to day. I especially click with service members, veterans, and busy working adults who want collaborative, no-nonsense care.
Treatment methods
Strength-Based
I start from what already works - coping skills, supports, routines, and past wins - then build the plan around those, not only symptoms. In sessions, we name concrete strengths (discipline, family, faith, work ethic) and use them when we choose meds, sleep strategies, or next steps. Progress is framed as growing what’s working, not just fixing what’s wrong.
