Laura Jones

Laura Jones

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


Hi, I'm Laura! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas with nearly three years of experience working across inpatient psychiatric settings and in-home family therapy. That background has given me a front-row seat to the full spectrum of human struggle, and it's shaped me into a therapist who is warm, grounded, and genuinely unshockable. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, women's issues, trauma, and the everyday weight of just being a person in this world. My sessions are virtual and available most weekday evenings, because healing shouldn't have to wait for a convenient hour. More than anything, I want you to walk into our sessions, even the very first one, feeling like you can exhale. You don't have to perform or polish yourself here. This is a space built for your real, unfiltered self.
