About Shauna

Shauna Jones is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 10 years of experience. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical ways to feel better. Shauna works with concerns like depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship or intimacy-related issues.

Her style is warm, honest, and interactive. Sessions are conversational and focused on small, achievable steps. She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats people with respect and compassion.

Shauna draws on cognitive behavioral methods to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also uses trauma-focused work when past hurts are getting in the way of daily life. Solution-focused techniques help prioritize what matters now and plan concrete changes.

She has supported people through parenting struggles, career challenges, mood disturbances, and ADHD-related concerns. Shauna has experience helping those who have survived physical trauma or emotional abuse and addresses issues such as grief, addiction, and compassion fatigue.

In each case she adapts the conversation and plan to the person's needs and goals. She encourages small steps and tracks progress together. If someone is ready to try for a more fulfilling life, she offers steady, practical support.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Shauna uses client-centered methods that focus on the person’s goals, values, and experience, helping shape sessions around what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is also a key tool she uses to spot unhelpful thought patterns and practice different behaviors that reduce anxiety or mood symptoms. Trauma-focused therapy is used when past events are getting in the way of daily life, with attention to pacing and safety while processing painful memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Shauna will discuss options and tailor methods to the client’s needs, goals, and preferences in a collaborative way. She encourages open feedback so the plan can change as progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help fit care into busy lives by reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make sessions more accessible for people balancing work, caregiving, or school schedules. Talk with Shauna during the matching process to determine how to structure sessions so they fit your routine.
