About Shauna
Shauna Jones is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina with ten years of clinical experience. She offers a straightforward, warm approach aimed at helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, or life changes. Her work often focuses on parenting concerns and relationship difficulties as they affect daily life.
Shauna uses practical methods drawn from cognitive behavioral techniques and trauma-focused care. Sessions are interactive and focused on clear, doable steps you can try between meetings.
Background and approach
She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats each person with respect and sensitivity. Her sessions also draw on solution-focused work to help set realistic goals and identify small shifts that make a difference. When trauma or past abuse is part of the problem she incorporates trauma-focused methods to reduce symptoms and regain a sense of control.
The goal is steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes. Clients can expect a collaborative tone in sessions. Shauna listens, reflects, and offers concrete tools for coping, sleeping better, managing mood, and handling parenting stress.
She also addresses issues such as grief, addiction, ADHD, and intimacy-related concerns in practical terms. Overall the work emphasizes real-world changes you can practice between sessions. If someone is ready to try new approaches, she helps shape a plan that fits their life and goals.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered work focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around what matters most to the client. It helps people feel heard and guides the pace of change based on their values and goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions to find practical changes that reduce anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood swings. It emphasizes small experiments and skills to use between sessions.
Trauma-focused therapy helps people process past harm and reduce the ways trauma shows up now, such as in sleep, relationships, or reactions to stress. It is tailored to each person and moves at a manageable pace.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Shauna will collaborate with clients to decide whether client-centered conversation, CBT tools, or trauma-focused methods fit best. The plan is adjusted over time based on progress, needs, and personal preference.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let you see facial expressions and body language. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, and ongoing reminders between longer sessions. These options make it possible to use therapeutic tools in the moments when they matter most.
