About Valorie
Valorie Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 11 years of work in mental health and substance use care. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and a range of mood and behavioral issues. Sessions address everyday problems like sleep, eating, anger, and career stress as well as longer-term concerns such as bipolar disorder and ADHD.
Jones uses straight talk and structured methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered, dialectical behavior, emotionally-focused, and existential approaches to shape sessions. The work often includes identifying patterns, trying new coping skills, and reviewing what helps in daily life.
Her background includes services for people managing substance use and psychosocial rehabilitation needs. She has experience with attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, and the effects of domestic violence and infidelity. That experience informs practical steps for safety, coping, and rebuilding routine when appropriate.
Sessions typically aim to build specific skills: stress management, emotional regulation, communication techniques, and problem-solving for career or parenting strain. Jones frames therapy as collaborative - she and the client set goals, test options, and track progress over time. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches used online and how they work
Valorie Jones commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts and to develop practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT sessions focus on testing small changes, practicing new behaviors, and reviewing what works in everyday life.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and reflecting so clients can clarify their own goals and values. That approach is often useful for people coping with grief, identity questions, or life changes who want a steady, respectful conversational style.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities. Those skills include emotion regulation techniques, distress tolerance strategies, and concrete communication tools that people can apply in heated moments.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the problem, and adjust based on what the client finds helpful. Sessions are shaped by client needs and preferences rather than a fixed plan.
Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week, reducing travel time, and choosing quieter surroundings for focused work. Some formats also make it easier to have shorter check-ins or to avoid video when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to teach skills, review homework, and track progress over time.
