Beverly Jones , LMHC, LPC

Beverly Jones is a licensed counselor based in New York who focuses on women's issues alongside stress, anxiety, addiction, and life changes. She holds the LMHC credential and the LPC credential and brings six years of clinical experience. Beverly works with adults facing mood concerns, relationship strain, career stress, trauma, and low self-esteem. She aims to create a respectful and compassionate space for each person she sees.

In sessions Beverly uses clear, practical conversation. She listens first to understand what feels most urgent. Then she tailors tools and goals to fit daily life and the client's priorities rather than applying a single method to everyone.

Her approach draws on client-centered techniques that prioritize the client's voice and experience. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and mindfulness practices to ground attention in the present. Motivational interviewing and narrative work are added when clients want to shift habits or make meaning from difficult events.

Beverly has worked in settings that addressed addiction, trauma, and family concerns, which shaped her practical focus on coping skills and realistic steps forward. She supports people who are navigating divorce, blended family issues, adoption and foster care questions, chronic illness, or caregiving stress.

In the first meetings she helps clients set short-term goals and builds a plan they can try between sessions. She explains methods plainly and adjusts pacing to match how fast a person wants to move. Beverly encourages anyone feeling overwhelmed to take that first step toward help.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's own perspective and priorities. In practice that means sessions start with open conversation and the therapist reflects what she hears so clients can clarify their goals. This approach helps with stress, relationship concerns, and decisions about career or family.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Beverly uses simple CBT exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and to practice small behavioral changes that reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. That kind of work often involves brief exercises to try between sessions.

Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing practices that help reduce reactivity and increase calm. These short exercises can be guided during a video call or sent as prompts in text-based messaging to use throughout the week.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Beverly works collaboratively to match methods to a client's needs, goals, and comfort level. She will explain options, try techniques, and adjust direction based on what feels most helpful.

Online formats offer real flexibility. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and are useful for hands-free check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients send short updates, ask quick questions, or get coaching-style prompts between appointments. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.
