Clinical Social Work Practice – Middle Georgia Counseling and Testing

Middle Georgia Counseling and Testing is a private practice based in Centerville, Georgia, operated by Jason B. Hobbs, LCSW, MDiv. Hobbs holds licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia (license CSW3137) for both in-person and telehealth services, and is additionally licensed in Florida for telehealth (license TPSW2656). He has maintained an active private practice since 2004 and brings prior professional experience in hospice work, homeless services, and pastoral counseling.

Hobbs co-authored the book “When Anxiety Strikes,” published by Kregel in 2019. He is a trained spiritual director and has led mindfulness training groups using the Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) framework in structured group settings.

Clinical areas addressed include anxiety, depression, trauma, adjustment disorders, autism spectrum disorder, ADD/ADHD, work-related stress, school issues, custody matters, divorce, existential concerns, phobias, grief, marital and premarital counseling, panic disorders, child and adolescent issues, and parenting support.

Therapeutic approaches employed include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused therapy, Supportive Therapy, general Psychotherapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, the Gottman Method for couples work, Existential Therapy, and Christian Counseling. Hobbs has received specialized clinical training in mindfulness and cognitive therapy.

Sessions are available both in person at the Centerville office and via telehealth, including telehealth services for clients located in Florida. Accepted insurance plans include BlueCross and BlueShield, Medicare, Aetna, Cigna, Ambetter, GEHA, Secure Health, United Healthcare, and TRICARE East. A secure client portal is available for established patients. The practice complies with the No Surprises Act and provides good faith cost estimates upon request. Emergency situations are directed to 911.

Contact: phone 478-953-0088. Fee schedules and office hours are not published on the website. The practice serves clients in central Georgia from the Centerville location and extends telehealth access to clients in Florida, supporting a broader geographic reach than a single in-person office would allow. The combination of clinical licensure, theological training, and prior community-based experience informs the range of services offered at the practice.
