Patrick Jones , LPCC

Patrick Jones is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 16 years of clinical experience helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, sleep difficulties, and mood concerns. He draws on a broad base of training to support people facing relationship and family challenges, grief and loss, parenting struggles, issues around intimacy and attachment, as well as career and life transitions. Patrick approaches each person with the belief that they are the expert on their own story and that their strengths can be mobilized to overcome what feels overwhelming.

Clients meet a therapist who values courage and practical change - someone who offers a supportive, empowering partnership to explore patterns, build coping skills, and set achievable goals. His work integrates evidence-informed methods tailored to individual needs, whether addressing compulsive behaviors, managing ADHD, coping with compassion fatigue, or improving communication and commitment in relationships. Patrick practices with attention to diverse identities, including LGBTQ clients, and attends to co-occurring concerns like substance use, trauma histories, and caregiver stress. He aims to create a steady, collaborative space where people can take the first steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Patrick uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and values-driven choices - ACT focuses on increasing psychological flexibility so clients can move toward the life they want despite difficult emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and modify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many day-to-day stressors; it emphasizes practical skills and measurable progress. For clients with histories of significant trauma, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be offered to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional charge in a structured way.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Patrick works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and current challenges, and he adapts strategies over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - through video sessions, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy schedules, manage mobility or geographic barriers, and maintain continuity during life transitions. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent, goal-focused work while accommodating how and when a person prefers to participate.
