About Shawnda
LMHC in Indiana with 20 years of experience, Shawnda Jones helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, and mood concerns. She works with adults facing life changes, grief, addiction, anger, and compassion fatigue. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical work rather than vague talk. Shawnda asks what clients want to change and then helps them get there step by step.
She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral and trauma-focused tools. That means clients set the direction while she offers skills for thinking differently, coping with strong emotions, and processing difficult events. Mindfulness and emotionally-focused techniques are also part of her practice when they fit a person's needs.
Shawnda trained with a Master of Science in Clinical Counseling Psychology and holds a Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential, LMHC. She combines academic training with two decades of direct clinical work to guide people through practical challenges. Her background also includes focused training in grief and trauma therapy.
In sessions she helps people identify behaviors and thoughts that get in the way, practices new ways of responding, and addresses past hurts that keep recurring problems alive. Work is collaborative - goals, pace, and techniques are decided together. The emphasis is on usable skills, clearer thinking, and manageable next steps.
People who prefer a direct, goal-oriented approach tend to fit best. She offers care in English and will work with international clients who coordinate scheduling from Indiana. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Shawnda applies therapeutic approaches in remote sessions
Shawnda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and practice different reactions. CBT sessions often include step-by-step techniques like identifying thought patterns, testing beliefs, and trying small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety or manage mood.She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events continue to cause distress. That work focuses on processing difficult memories and building skills to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy appears in cases where understanding and shifting emotional responses can clarify relationship or attachment issues.
Choosing an approach happens collaboratively. Shawnda will review goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend methods to try. She adjusts methods if something isn’t helping and checks in regularly about progress.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a work break or sessions that avoid travel time. It can also allow steady weekly work when attending in person would be difficult.
