About Shauna

Shauna Jones is a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina with 10 years of practice experience. She offers a straightforward, warm approach and aims to make therapy a practical part of everyday life. Her manner is honest and interactive, and she focuses on helping people take small steps toward change.

Shauna works with individuals facing a wide range of concerns. These include anxiety, depression, stress, mood disturbances, and ADHD. She also supports people dealing with relationship tension, parenting challenges, grief, and issues related to trauma or abuse. Sleep and eating concerns are also among the topics she addresses in sessions.

Her work blends several methods to fit each person’s needs. Shauna uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She applies trauma-focused techniques when past harm affects current day-to-day functioning. Solution-focused strategies help set clear, achievable goals and build momentum between sessions.

Sessions are conversational and collaborative. Shauna listens carefully, asks direct questions, and helps clients outline practical steps they can try between meetings. She avoids labels that feel stigmatizing and centers respect and sensitivity in care.

People often come to her when they want relief from recurring worries, better sleep patterns, clearer communication, or coping tools for life transitions. She encourages clients to start with one small change and build from there. The aim is to create steady progress that fits a person’s real life.

Therapeutic approaches and what online work can look like

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to your concerns without judgment. It helps people feel understood and build a plan that fits their values and daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change patterns that cause distress. This approach often helps with anxiety, low mood, and sleep-related habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense for their goals and preferences. That choice can evolve as progress is made and circumstances change.

Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can help fit meetings into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and make it easier to check in between obligations. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, or sessions that avoid being on camera if that feels easier. Talk with the therapist about practical needs and scheduling so sessions work with everyday life.
