About Shauna

Shauna Jones is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina. She brings ten years of experience to individual therapy and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Shauna is straightforward and caring in sessions and aims to make conversations feel useful from the first visit.

Her work often addresses the effects of trauma and abuse, mood disturbances such as bipolar disorder, and challenges tied to parenting and family roles. She also supports people facing addiction, grief, intimacy-related issues, and problems with sleep or eating. Shauna lists additional focus areas that include attachment and abandonment concerns, adoption and foster care issues, and kink-informed topics like BDSM and alternative sex culture.

Shauna draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice patterns of thought and try new behavior strategies. Solution-Focused and Trauma-Focused approaches guide practical steps to reduce distress and build coping skills.

Sessions are guided by a collaborative plan tailored to each person’s needs. Shauna aims to be honest and interactive, listening first and then shaping goals that feel realistic. Her work emphasizes practical change and emotional understanding.

If someone is ready to start, Shauna encourages taking the next step and looks forward to supporting growth and healing.

Therapeutic approaches used for online care

Shauna commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of her online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and building a trusting relationship so people feel understood and can set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits, and then tests small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.

She also draws on Solution-Focused techniques to set short-term, practical goals and on Trauma-Focused approaches when past events are contributing to current distress. Finding the right approach is part of the work together - Shauna helps clients pick methods that fit their needs and adjusts plans as goals change. This is collaborative and paced to what the person wants to accomplish.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which online formats are offered. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, let sessions fit into a busy day, and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, depending on the available formats. Licensed professionals can use these methods to help people practice new skills, manage symptoms, and make steady progress toward personal goals.
