What is therapy like? What does a typical session with you look like?

I love giving my clients a warm, safe space to openly share their most guarded thoughts and feelings so that they feel they can be open about the burdens they carry and have them lifted through our work together.

Hello! I'm Dr. Jo. I consider myself a creative, innovative, and authentic human. Along with providing direct care to clients, I have been leading clinical teams in diverse community mental health settings. I hold a Ph.D. in Psychology, am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor, and a National Certified Counselor. My specialties include trauma recovery for individuals and couples.

Hi Everyone, My name is Cree Jones and I am a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFTA). I graduated from Syracuse University in 2022 with a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy and I have my Bachelor's in Psychology and Sociology with a minor in Gender Studies from the University of Mississippi. I consider myself a collaborative specialist where I work with the client through techniques and methods specified to the client to reach their goal. I specialize in working with individuals, families, and couples with issues ranging from anxiety, communication, sex therapy, couples therapy, conflict, kink, LGBTQ+ issues, work stress, school stress, trauma, premarital counseling, intimacy issues, life transitions, depression, sexual issues, self-esteem/growth, and infidelity.

If you are curious, hesitant, or intimidated about seeking therapy, I am here to help. I create a nonjudgemental, safe and confidential space where you can freely express yourself without fear, judgment or criticism. This space is dedicated solely to your well-being, where you can explore your emotions, build your self-esteem and cultivate self-compassion. If you value a creative and holistic approach to therapy, we may integrate art or other expressive techniques like mindfulness. I am passionate about trauma and women's issues. My training and experience allows me to navigate the complex needs of survivors of all ages, including young survivors. One area of particular interest to me is the mind-body-spirit approach. These therapies focus on the body's wisdom in healing trauma and provide a holistic approach to recovery. As part of Wellspring Therapeutic Partners, I regularly consult with our team of therapists, prescribers, and psychologists who specialize in a variety of areas. I can provide seamless referrals for medication management or testing, though we always welcome and encourage you to keep working with your outside provider if helpful.

My focus will help you to reduce your mental health symptoms by developing healthy life choices, positive coping skills, and improved self image. I can assist you in building positive relationships and connections. I am currently providing Telehealth therapeutic services for individuals and couples seeking therapeutic support.

I am passionate about helping others be who they truly are and to recognize their gifts. I believe that “perspective is everything” and our thoughts and the way we look at things and the world create our reality. I also live by the belief that “nothing changes until I step out of my comfort zone and do something different.”

I get it! On the outside, maybe you seem fine. You’re balancing everything life throws at you...but there are times when you’re overwhelmed. You feel like whatever you do, it doesn’t seem to be “enough.” Everyone around you seems to be happier, more put together, and you can't figure out why. You spend so much effort pushing feelings away, that you’re not enjoying life. It doesn't have to be this way. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, trauma, stressful relationships, parenting, depression, or grief, there's a path towards joy and calm! Asking for help can be scary, but don’t worry! I’ve got you! I want to work with you to let go of the dark cloud that hangs over you so you can enjoy life again (or maybe for the first time). I use evidence-based therapies and tailor your treatment to you. I specialize in counseling for teens, young adults, women, first responders, and veterans, and can provide Christian counseling, but treat people from all backgrounds. My clients tell me that they've never felts so safe and cared for than in our therapy sessions. You don't have to feel alone in this any more. I offer a FREE 15 minute consultation for you to get to know me and to make sure you feel comfortable. I received my Masters of Science in Social Work from the University of Texas and trained at the Veteran's Health Administration in the PTSD Clinic. I also provided school-based mental health to high school students, worked in a group practice treating individuals and couples, and have led grief groups and camps. I'm an active volunteer for justice and to make the world a safer, kinder place for everyone.
