About Shauna
Shauna Jones is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina. She brings ten years of experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and major life changes. Her manner is warm, direct, and respectful, and she aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable.
Shauna uses practical approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques and trauma-focused work to help people spot unhelpful patterns and try different ways of coping.
Background and approach
She also uses solution-focused methods to set clear, short-term goals. Sessions are tailored to each person's needs so the work stays concrete and relevant. Her background includes supporting people after physical trauma or emotional abuse and working with mood disturbances, ADHD, and stress related to caregiving or career pressure.
She also addresses intimacy concerns, grief, addiction issues, and relationship communication problems. This range helps her adapt strategies to many everyday struggles. In sessions Shauna aims for honest dialogue and collaboration.
She listens first, then helps identify simple, practical steps to test between meetings. Progress is often measured by small changes people can notice in daily life. People who choose her often want straightforward tools and a supportive partner in the work.
Shauna focuses on building coping skills, improving communication, and reducing symptoms that get in the way of daily functioning.
Practical approaches for online care
Shauna combines client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral and solution-focused techniques to guide online work. Client-centered therapy centers on listening and responding to each person without judgment, which helps build trust and clarify goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers tools for changing patterns that cause distress. Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on concrete goals and small steps that produce noticeable change quickly.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shauna will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether to focus on skills, address trauma-related reactions, or set short-term problem-solving goals, and adjust the plan as progress occurs.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make therapy more flexible. Video works well for conversations that benefit from face-to-face interaction, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or text messaging can be helpful for shorter check-ins, quick coping reminders, or when written reflection feels easier. These formats aim to make it simpler to keep regular contact and practice new skills between sessions.
