Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I’m a seasoned therapist with over 25 years of experience supporting people in finding meaningful, holistic ways to improve mood, clarity, and overall well-being. My approach is rooted in Adlerian psychology and focuses on personal empowerment, present-day strengths, and forward movement rather than remaining anchored in the past. I value depth, connection, and practical insight, and I strive to create a space that feels human, supportive, and collaborative. Above all, I believe healing happens most readily through genuine connection, empathy, and being truly seen.

Hello! After my military career, I figured out there were no available job opportunities as a superhero so I chose a different path to help others and became a clinical social worker. While raising two kids, I started school, completed a life coaching course, and graduated with my MSW in 2006. I started my career at a local hospital providing inpatient services. Later, I joined an agency providing outpatient mental health therapy to help adults navigate through complicated life issues.

Something Beautiful Counseling was built around a simple belief: that healing is possible for everyone, and therapy should feel like a real partnership — not a clinical process you're being put through.

I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors on anxiety, depression, OCD, eating concerns, PTSD, grief, relationship challenges, and family stress. I also offer couples therapy through a Solution-Focused approach. Whether you're carrying something heavy or just need support navigating life's transitions, there's a place here for you.

I believe every person deserves a safe space to heal, grow, and rediscover their strengths. I am Crystal Jones, MSW, LCSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than a decade of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families across school, community, and outpatient mental health settings.

My professional journey has been rooted in helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, respect, and practical support. I earned my Bachelor of Social Work from East Carolina University and my Master of Social Work from North Carolina Central University. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, stress, behavioral concerns, self-esteem challenges, and family relationship difficulties.

I strive to create an environment where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered. I recognize that healing is not one-size-fits-all, and I am committed to meeting each client where they are while helping them move toward meaningful, lasting change.

Whether you are seeking support during a difficult season or working toward personal growth, I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you on your journey.

I have been a Social Worker for 30 years! That's crazy for me to think about because I am not THAT old......and I have learned a lot (about myself) along the way. I have learned that I do like to talk to people more than I let on. I have learned that I can be very patient listener and I give good feedback. And, I have learned that, at some point, we all have to make changes in our lives and that can be scary. I have also learned it's not as scary when we talk about it out loud........just saying.

I was drawn into this profession from an early age, always curious about people, what they do, how they think, how they go about solving problems or getting stuck in them. Even when we do things well, we stumble over life's hurdles. It can feel overwhelming trying to find a way out or up or back. A listening heart and a supportive hand can be a big help finding our way again. With over 40 years of experience, I have worked with a wide range of people and concerns.
