About Shauna

Shauna Jones is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, trauma and anger. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use day to day to manage feelings and handle conflict more calmly.

Shauna uses straightforward, interactive conversation. She combines Client-Centered approaches with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused work to help people change unhelpful patterns. That often means identifying thinking traps, practicing new behaviors, and testing small changes between sessions.

She also draws on Solution-Focused ideas to set clear goals and track progress. Short-term strategies and measurable steps are common parts of the plan. This can help when someone needs immediate tools for anger, anxiety, or coping with life changes.

Internal Family Systems is another method Shauna uses to notice different parts of how a person feels and reacts. That approach can make strong emotions easier to understand and manage without shaming oneself for having them.

Shauna has worked with people affected by abuse, trauma, mood disorders, ADHD, and loss. Her background includes both individual and family work, and she aims to make sessions practical. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking flow.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Shauna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy alongside Client-Centered work. CBT involves noticing patterns of thinking that fuel anger or anxiety and learning concrete skills to shift those patterns. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process and respond differently to past hurt so that painful memories have less hold on current reactions. Client-Centered work keeps the conversation grounded in what the person needs and values, letting goals guide the focus.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shauna collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means checking what helps, adjusting plans, and trying different techniques until the sessions feel useful.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they fit into workdays, reduce travel time, and make scheduling easier. Others prefer a shorter check-in or phone calls when that fits a busy day better. The therapist will discuss practical scheduling and format choices when arranging the first session.
