About
Dr. Jones
Background
I am trained as a psychologist and have had 8 years of experience working with youth, young adults, adults, and families in hospital and community settings. I work with a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and psychosis. I am particularly dedicated to suicide prevention and working with those who experience suicidality or self-harm. More recently, I have a growing passion and interest in maternal mental health.
Approach
In therapy, I work closely with you to help define your goals for your health and alleviate suffering by creating a deeper understanding of how your pain came to be and how to move forward on the path to healing through increased self-awareness and understanding, with implementation of new skills and strategies to manage current challenges. I utilize both psychodynamic and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) informed approaches.
WorkINg TOGETHER
What to except
Whether you have experience in therapy or this is your first time, we will dedicate our initial therapy sessions to developing a shared understanding of the “problem” and our treatment plan to work together to help build or connect back to a life worth living. Therapy then focuses on developing awareness about how your pain began, and how to use our new knowledge to start creating new patterns. I use both talking and teaching new skills as tools to help get relief from your pain and build a path forward to hope and health.
