About Valorie Jones

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than ten years of experience in mental health and substance use disorders. I also have a specialty license in Rehabilitation Counseling with emphasis on physical disabilities, vocational services, career counseling and developmental disorders are also my expertise. I can provide Case management services and psychosocial rehabilitation counseling. I provide Life skills training and coaching for transitional care. I address issues related to distorted beliefs and attributions related to physical and emotional abuse and provide a supportive environment.

I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, PTSD, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. The scope of the sessions focus on empowerment, developing confidence, mastering coping skills, therapy, and quality of care for clients.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
