About Gaye
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arkansas with four years of experience, Gaye Jones-Washington helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, self-esteem, parenting and related challenges. She works with adults who are coping with life changes, grief, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and issues tied to aging, communication, and women's health. Sessions are focused and practical, aimed at finding clearer ways to handle everyday pressure.
Gaye uses client-centered therapy to keep conversations focused on the person's perspective. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to teach emotion regulation and healthier coping when stress feels overwhelming.
Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help ground attention and reduce reactivity. Motivational interviewing helps people clarify goals and find motivation for change, including shifts in work, relationships, or health habits. These methods are described and chosen together, rather than applied by default.
In sessions Gaye listens for patterns that keep problems repeating. She helps people test small changes, practice new behaviors, and build on what works. Conversations tend to be direct and goal-oriented, with attention to both feelings and practical steps.
Her practice also addresses concerns such as intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, anger, forgiveness, life purpose, visual impairment considerations, and communication difficulties. People are asked to complete a brief questionnaire before the first session so sessions can begin with clear priorities and an initial plan.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Gaye commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and testing thoughts that contribute to anxiety or depression, then practicing practical alternatives to reduce symptoms. DBT teaches specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance and improving interactions when relationships are strained.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the session on the person’s own concerns and priorities. Deciding which approaches to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options and tailor the plan to the client's goals and preferences rather than imposing a single method.
Confirm the current session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. If a person prefers a method that emphasizes skills practice, Gaye can guide exercises and homework that fit into everyday routines.
