Chris Jones, LPC

Chris Jones, LPC, offers a calm and steady approach for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, depression, anger, or past trauma. She provides a listening space where clients can speak without judgment. Sessions focus on practical steps to reduce distress and build more balance in day-to-day life.

With nine years of experience, Chris helps teenagers and adults sort through strong emotions and confusing situations. She pays attention to issues tied to attention differences and neurodevelopmental needs. She also addresses concerns like abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, codependency, and chronic illness-related stress.

Her style is person-centered, meaning she treats each person as the expert on their own life. She combines empathy with solution-focused work to find what helps most in the moment. Clients can expect straightforward strategies alongside space to reflect.

Chris draws from several evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to shape the work. She adapts methods to each person’s goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Sessions aim to increase self-awareness, improve communication, and reduce patterns that cause pain. Chris emphasizes pacing the work so people feel able to explore difficult topics without becoming overwhelmed. She welcomes those ready to begin small steps toward feeling steadier and more connected to themselves again.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that match their values. This can help with anxiety, depression, and ongoing stress by shifting attention toward meaningful goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with real-life experiments to change behavior and mood. It often helps with worry, low mood, and anger by teaching clear skills to use between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reshaping emotional responses in close relationships, which can reduce distress tied to attachment and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chris will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods over time so therapy stays practical and relevant to what the person is trying to change.

In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow quicker check-ins when a brief update is needed. It also lets people practice skills in their everyday settings and bring real situations into session for discussion.
