About Chris

Chris Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. She works with teenagers and adults who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, ADHD-related concerns, and behavior issues. Sessions focus on practical steps to reduce overwhelm and regain balance.

Chris uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside client-centered, acceptance and commitment, cognitive behavioral, and dialectical behavior approaches. She treats emotions as important sources of information and helps clients name and work through intense feelings. That can reduce reactivity and open up clearer choices in day-to-day life.

Her style is person-centered and solution-focused. Clients are invited to describe what matters most to them, and together they identify strategies that fit those goals. Conversations alternate between exploring feelings and practicing concrete skills for coping and regulation.

Chris also addresses issues that connect to relationships and identity, such as attachment concerns, abandonment fears, codependency, commitment worries, and communication problems. She supports people managing chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns, dissociation, and other complex responses to life stress.

Practical work often includes building awareness of emotional patterns, testing new ways of responding, and learning behavioral tools from ACT, CBT, or DBT. The intent is to leave sessions with steps that can be used between meetings to make small, steady changes.

How Chris uses EFT, ACT and practical therapies online

Chris combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered work to help people understand and regulate strong emotions. EFT focuses on naming and processing emotions to shift painful patterns. ACT looks at values and actions, helping people move toward what matters despite difficult thoughts and feelings. Client-centered methods prioritize the person’s perspective and pacing, with the counselor listening and responding to what the client says.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Chris will work with each person to see which combination of EFT, ACT, CBT, or DBT-based skills best fits their needs and goals. Decisions about methods are made together, and the approach can shift as progress is made or priorities change.

Session formats were not specified in the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life - they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins, or let people attend from different locations when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt EFT and skills-based work to these practical constraints, focusing on emotion work and behavioral practice across appointments.
