About Shauna

Shauna Jones is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 10 years of practice. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns, and she lists family and parenting among her focus areas.

She has supported people through trauma and abuse, mood disturbances including bipolar disorder, and attention-related concerns such as ADHD. Shauna also helps with parenting strain, grief, intimacy-related challenges, and substance-related problems. Practical everyday problems like sleep and eating issues, career stress, and anger show up frequently in her work.

Her style is straightforward and interactive. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. She blends cognitive behavioral ideas with trauma-focused work and solution-focused strategies to address what matters most now.

Shauna uses a client-centered stance that keeps the person's experience central. That means she listens for patterns, points out useful changes, and works with the person to test small shifts. Internal Family Systems ideas are part of how she helps people understand conflicting thoughts or feelings.

She has spent a decade helping adults untangle difficult situations tied to abandonment, attachment, blended family stress, caregiving burden, and relationship problems. People often come to her when they need clear steps to cope, to manage strong emotions, or to rebuild after hard experiences.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can say what matters most. Online sessions using this stance let the therapist prioritize the person’s concerns and follow their lead to set goals and steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and tests small changes. In an online setting CBT sessions often include homework, brief skill practice, and concrete behavior plans to try between meetings. Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at how past harm shows up now and uses gradual, paced work to reduce intense reactions; online sessions can structure that pacing and allow repeated review of coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Shauna will talk with the person about goals, current struggles, and what methods feel tolerable. She adapts the mix of listening, skill-building, and trauma work based on those conversations so the plan fits the person’s needs and preferences.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and daily schedules. Some formats are quieter or shorter, which helps when there is limited time or bandwidth. The focus is on making sessions practical and usable in everyday life rather than adding extra complications.
