About me

I earned my licenses as a professional counselor in Texas in September 2011. Education includes a doctorate in psychology from University of Arizona Global Campus in October 2020, a masters in rehabilitation counseling in 2005, and Bachelor of Arts in psychology in 2001 from Stephen F. Austin State University. Work experience includes working in a variety of settings serving clients ranging from 4 to 65+ years in age. By doing a thorough assessment I am able to develop an individualized treatment plan to meet your needs. Setting goals, addressing obstacles to progress, and practical steps bring success into everyone’s reach. I look forward to being your new therapist.

Dr. Jones is a life saver. As a Black woman, I struggled to find someone who I related to and was able to share freely with. She’s amazing and is so knowledgeable

Dr. Jones is a no-nonsense Dr. She is not so much about causes but more on solutions. She cares about her patients.
