Shasha Jones

Shasha Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and concerns tied to intellectual disability. She works with a wide range of challenges including relationship and family issues, addiction, grief, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, and career or life-purpose questions. Her style aims to make problems feel more manageable, one small step at a time.

Shasha uses plain, practical therapy rather than jargon. Sessions often focus on shifting how a person sees a problem and building small, steady habits that change daily life. She draws on cognitive and behavioral tools to change unhelpful patterns, and she uses mindfulness and emotion-focused ideas to strengthen self-awareness and connection.

Her approach is collaborative and goal-minded. Shasha mixes client-centered care with techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy depending on what helps most. She also brings in trauma-informed practices when needed and uses metaphors and stories to make ideas easier to try in real life.

Shasha trained in counseling and clinical health psychology at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and holds earlier degrees in psychology and behavioral science. She has spent over a decade in mental health roles, including outpatient therapy, behavioral consulting, and brain injury work, and she also has experience in customer relations and operations management.

People who prefer clear steps and hands-on tools often do well with her style. She encourages clients to set small, achievable goals and to check progress between sessions so change feels steady and realistic.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still act on what matters to them. It focuses on values and small committed actions to move toward a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems down into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and shifting emotional responses to improve closeness and communication in relationships.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different tools, and tailor methods as needs become clearer. This is a collaborative process where feedback guides what is used next.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make therapy fit into busy lives by reducing travel time, allowing check-ins around work or school schedules, and making it easier to stick with weekly practice. Some formats let sessions be shorter for focused skill practice, while others support longer conversations when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets, and mindfulness practices to remote sessions so change keeps moving forward even when life is busy.
