Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Raleigh, NC

I feel very honored for the opportunity to care for others. I understand that mental and physical health are connected and are shaped by our past. I believe that psychiatric treatment works.

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.

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 believe that therapy can have a great impact on one's life. If one is motivated, one can resolve problems, feel better, and address past hardships. I have over thirty years of experience helping clients achieve their goals in a supportive and safe environment. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I received my undergraduate degree from Stanford University and my Masters of Social Work from Columbia University. I have resided in both the United States and Latin America. I look forward to working with each and every client, in order that they may reach their happiest self possible.

Congrats on taking the first step in your mental health journey! My name is Shaquana and I believe mental health is just as important as your regular doctor appointments. Bringing Mental Health Awareness to others is a passion of mine because I understand first-hand the therapy process can be scary. My ideal client is a person who is ready to embark on their wellness journey, someone who may be scared of the process, yet willing to begin. I am here to encourage individuals to open up to their truths, achieve happiness within themselves, and to feel and be great!

I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person Centered Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues providing services that span across multiple areas including self-esteem, anger/anger management, depression, anxiety, stress management, relationship issues and more.

This mental health journey can be intimidating but you don't have to take this journey alone. The stigma surrounding mental health can also make it difficult to start therapy, and I am here to let you know that in the safe space of therapy the stigma does not exist. If you are ready to start your journey or you are unsure feel free to contact me today!

Open minded clinician with over 15 years of experience. I meet each client where they are and work with them to come up and out of dysfunction. I believe in speaking to whatever part of life you will allow me. I am very honest and will not sugar coat while you feel warmth and love from my delivery.

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 earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Asheville and a 2022 graduate of Walden University and earned a Master of Science Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

I work with young people experiencing disruptive behaviors, and individuals experiencing change of life concerns, anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders, as well as aiding individuals in developing anger management skills and coping skills to address emotional and behavioral concerns.
