About Paige

Paige Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who blends practical skills training with trauma-informed care. She uses clear, straightforward techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, and major life changes. Her approach centers on building trust and focusing on what a person needs right now.

Many seekers appreciate that she draws on vocational experience as well as mental health training to address work and life concerns. Paige trained at Wayland Baptist University where she earned a master's degree and holds a bachelor’s in English Literature with a journalism minor from Midwestern State University.

Background and approach

Before counseling, she worked as a journalist. That background sharpened her listening and communication skills. It also helped her connect with people from many walks of life.

Over 11 years she has concentrated on trauma care and on helping people with career-related stress. She routinely uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques in sessions. She also has experience with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - often used for trauma processing - and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation.

In sessions, she focuses on practical tools people can use between meetings. That might include skills for sleep, coping with grief, or managing addictive urges. The work aims to reduce day-to-day distress and build reliable routines.

Paige practices in Texas and provides services in English. She offers several online session formats, and she welcomes international clients who prefer remote work.

Therapeutic approaches for online care and practical tools

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It combines everyday actions with simple exercises to reduce avoidance and build a more meaningful routine. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life actions to lower anxiety and depression symptoms. CBT gives concrete tools to change patterns that keep problems going. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured approach used to reduce the emotional charge of traumatic memories by pairing focused recall with guided bilateral stimulation; it can be helpful for people who have repeated traumatic reactions.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and past treatments and then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made over time based on what is helpful.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity while traveling, or access care from outside Texas. Many people find that a mix of formats works best, and the therapist can discuss which option fits a person's daily life and treatment goals.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
