About Me
Hello! My name is Cynthia Jones, a clinician with a master level degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from Winston-Salem State University (May 2012) and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from High Point University (2003). I am currently a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Clinician (LCMHC). I have devoted most of my career to the field of Human Services, beginning in 2002 as a Behavioral Modification Technician at a Level III group home for adolescent females.
I have over 15 years of working experience with Children, Adolescents, Adults, Couples, and Families in individual and group settings; including experience working with Veterans and their families. My interests include working with all populations to overcome adversities and obstacles which may include:
parents and their children
individuals coping with role changes, job loss, career changes
persons coping with grief, anxiety, stress, and depression
youth adjusting to functional deficits and life challenges
My belief is that therapy provides an opportunity for growth, self-discovery and insight in the context of a safe, supportive environment. Therapy often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, significant reductions in feelings of distress and an overall improved well-being.
Psychotherapy has been shown to have many benefits. However, it is difficult to predict what will happen in terms of therapeutic outcomes or to provide a clear estimate of time required for each client to reach his or her personal goals. One of the best indicators for success in therapy is the motivation level of the client such as being open to the process of change, being consistent with attending sessions and working on goals outside of sessions.
Also, my belief is that each client is unique and presents with his or her own counseling needs and concerns. Utilizing one therapeutic approach may not work best for everyone. Therefore, I will utilize integrative models involving insight oriented, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Brief Strategic Family Therapy, Solution-Focused, Person Centered and System of Care. In our work together, it is expected that you will participate in the formation and completion of counseling goals so that our sessions will be meaningful and helpful to you. I may occasionally assign homework as a means of providing you with further reinforcement of concepts discussed in sessions and to prompt further insight and self-exploration.
There are many reasons why people seek counseling. The fact that you are seeking counseling demonstrates your commitment to your mental and emotional health as well as your inner strength in identifying when seeking support is necessary. I believe that clients have the capacity to learn, change, and grow so that they may experience more meaningful, healthier, and happier lives. Whatever your reasons are for seeking services, I look forward to partnering with you on addressing whatever counseling needs you may have.

She is great!
She is very empathetic and understanding standing. She know the right questions to ask to help you get to the roots of your issues
Cynthia is empathetic & helps me frame things in a new light, as well as validating my feelings & frustrations. I have enjoyed working with her.
It's been a pleasure working with Cynthia, she makes me feel safe to speak my thoughts without judgement and allows me the space to come to my own conclusions. My ability to get through a day without thinking negatively has improved since starting.
Shes literally the best , most compassionate, warm hearted therapist. You will not regret growing with her guiding you. She has perfected her craft!
Cynthia Jones in my opinion is a very good therapist. She Was a very good listener and responded in very helpful ways and also gave very good ideas/activities to help with recovery.
Great therapist
I appreciate Cynthia's neutral insight.. She has helped me to see things from a different perspective. My time with her has been very beneficial.
I enjoy my therapist. She is well-informed and will always give me other resources to use to help me strategize my thought patterns/emotional makeup in making life decisions.
Ms. Cynthia gets me all the way together in the most genuine and loving way. She listens in depth and guides the conversation by asking relevant questions to have you thinking a little deeper about… the way you think. She has given me the confidence and cheers from afar that have boosted my self esteem and I’m seeing a difference within myself for sure! Highly recommend!
She easy to talk to , she’s understanding and gives great advice!
She's very helpful and attentive, responds in a quick manner, and provides great ways to help with problems
Cynthia is very kind and provides beneficial and succinct feedback. She does not try to merely appease her patients, but provides meaningful actions and guidance for improving whatever the patient may be struggling with.
Cynthia Jones is the first person to make me see things about myself that I did not realize when I thought I had it all figured out and I really appreciate her for being so patient with me so understanding
Cynthia has been helping me through some difficult times. She is thoughtful and considerate and responds very quickly.
Cynthia is understanding and listens to what you have to say and the material that she hands out after a session help.
Cynthia is very good at balancing professional with personable. She listens but also asks questions that make me think which is something I didn’t have with my traditional therapists. I don’t know if she does this for all of her clients but she always schedules our sessions which is a HUGE weight off of my mind and I can just add it to my personal calendar. Working with Cynthia helps me feel seen and heard which in turn makes me feel valued and respected.
Tonight was my second session and I feel like I’m making great progress. Thank you so much!
Cynthia has had a steadying influence on me. I feel calmer and more attuned to problem solving.
Cynthia Jones is the perfect counselor you need when you're craving for some female vibe. She listens to my issues and concerns patiently and I look forward to her sessions eagerly.
She is a great listener and is giving me tools that are helping me make the changes I want to make
Cynthia is absolutely wonderful.
Cynthia is a really great listener. She expresses extreme compassion and the ability to empower her clients.
