About Shauna

Shauna Jones is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina. She brings ten years of experience helping people navigate depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, career stress, and mood challenges. Shauna writes in a direct, warm style and aims to make early conversations feel manageable for worried parents and individuals.

Her work often focuses on responses to trauma and emotional abuse, along with attention-related struggles such as ADHD. She also supports people dealing with grief, addiction-related concerns, intimacy issues, and the everyday strain of caregiving and parenting. Adoption and foster care questions are listed among her additional focuses when relevant to an individual's story.

Shauna uses straightforward approaches that match each person's needs. She draws on client-centered ideas to follow what matters most to the person in the room. Cognitive behavioral methods are included to help spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

She pairs those tools with trauma-focused techniques and solution-focused methods to set practical, short-term goals. Internal Family Systems ideas may be used to help sort conflicting feelings or parts of self. Sessions aim to be collaborative, honest, and respectful.

People who reach out start with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on the therapist's availability. Shauna emphasizes support, realistic steps, and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-centered therapy places the person's priorities first and uses active listening to guide sessions. It helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to make decisions about next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and the behaviors that follow, then practicing small changes that improve mood and daily functioning. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then tailor the plan as sessions progress. That means adjusting techniques and pacing based on how each person responds rather than sticking to a fixed method.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting therapy into a busy week and keeping progress steady during life transitions. Online sessions can make it easier to check in during a lunch break, keep a shorter weekly touchpoint, or avoid travel time. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered and can choose what best fits your routine.
