About Chris
Chris Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with nine years of experience. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through hard feelings and start to feel steadier.
Background and approach
Chris listens first and helps set small, doable steps toward feeling better. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD, and effects of trauma and abuse.
Chris also helps people struggling with attachment wounds, abandonment, codependency, commitment and control issues, and challenges like chronic illness and caregiver stress. Her work includes support for body image concerns, dissociation, and disruptive mood patterns.
Chris uses a person-centered stance to make sessions collaborative. She combines that with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to change unhelpful patterns.
She also draws on dialectical behavior strategies and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship skills are a priority. Sessions tend to focus on what matters most to each person.
Chris helps clients name feelings, build coping skills, and try new ways of responding to stress. She balances empathy with clear, solution-focused steps so progress feels tangible.
Her approach moves at the client’s pace and adapts goals as needs change. People who want straightforward talk, concrete strategies, and a steady guide through difficult emotions often find this style helpful.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Chris often uses the Gottman Method to teach practical communication and conflict-management skills for people who want clearer, calmer interactions. Gottman-informed strategies focus on improving how people talk and listen to one another and on rebuilding trust and connection.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then choose meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her toolkit too, offering straightforward techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then try methods that fit the client’s needs. Sessions are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for interactive skill practice and face-to-face connection, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth or screen time is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins or shorter, focused work between longer appointments. These options make it easier to get consistent support around busy schedules and different life demands.
