Alicia Jones , LMHC

Alicia Jones is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 11 years of experience working in nonprofit, court-supervised, and school settings. She has provided mental health services to adults living with mood disorders and other challenges, offering crisis stabilization, case management, and supportive therapy while also delivering individual and family counseling that concentrates on parenting, anger management, self-esteem, and family relationships.

Her background includes five years supervising Juvenile Drug Court and an outpatient substance use counseling services program, where she worked with teenagers and their parents to develop positive coping skills for substance use and co-occurring disorders. That role emphasized practical strategies and family involvement to support recovery and healthier choices.

Currently she serves as a school counselor in middle and high school settings, working with students on concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, social skills, and independent living skills. Her clinical approach is client-centered and strengths-based - she meets clients where they are, supports goal setting, and breaks problems into manageable steps. Alicia Jones focuses on teaching skills and offering tools to improve quality of life, grounded in the belief that people are capable of change with appropriate support and guidance.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Alicia Jones uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative, respectful relationship where the client’s goals and perspective guide the work. This approach helps individuals and families build confidence and develop skills at their own pace.

She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and replacing them with practical strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety and depression. CBT is useful for addressing mood concerns, stress, and behaviors that interfere with daily life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are employed when emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities. DBT supplies concrete tools for coping with intense emotions and improving communication in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alicia Jones works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists adjust techniques over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate schedules and location constraints. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from different environments, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for the client.
