Yolanda Jones

Hello, my name is Yolanda Jones and I am excited to meet you. I'm looking forward to getting to know you more and learning how I may help you feel better through our therapy work.

My ideal client is one who realizes that change starts with him/ her. My ideal client is ready to take action following an understanding that yesterday’s trauma unknowingly, and unconsciously can keep one in a state of maladaptive feelings such as low self-esteem, anger, guilt, shame, jealousy, or perfectionism. Do you often wonder where these emotions come from, and why you often find yourself in repeated negative situations which may also manifest in anxiety and depression? Are you fed up with negative emotional outcomes despite good intent? Let’s connect and walk hand in hand to begin to process layers and layers of what makes you- YOU, and how this is manifested interpersonally. During our first meeting, we will talk about events that precipitated your interest in therapy, along with discussing goals …for treatment.

My aim is to empower you to become better acquainted with SELF and to reimagine and redirect your life without the effects of past trauma being your compass. I specialize in assisting those who suffer from trauma, depression, anxiety, anger management, addiction, self-esteem issues, grief, and personality disorders. I am fully informed by psychoanalytic theory, which often speaks to how individuals are often shaped by childhood trauma. I offer a safe space for you to talk about hard topics and a space specifically for you to be you. I use CBT, narrative, schema, motivational, and mindfulness-based enhancement therapies along with other modalities, and often introduce different modalities based on ongoing assessments.

I feel honored to walk alongside you during your journey to holistic wellness when life’s circumstances have redirected your desired purpose. Trauma is one such circumstance. One’s traumatic past promotes one to see the world and the actions of others through a faulty lens that often hinders one from fully obtaining and maintaining positive interpersonal connections. Let's connect!
