Valorie Jones, LPC - Therapist in Georgia

About Valorie

Valorie Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 11 years of experience in mental health and substance use care. She practices in Georgia and brings a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions. Her manner is warm and interactive, and she focuses on helping people build skills they can use day to day.

Her work addresses stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and mood disorders such as bipolar. She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, grief, anger, sleep and eating problems, and ADHD.

Background and approach

Parenting and family issues are included among her areas of focus. Valorie uses straightforward talk and collaboratively builds a plan that fits each person's needs. She blends client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to teach coping skills and change unhelpful patterns.

She also draws on emotionally-focused and existential ideas when exploring values and meaning. In sessions she emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and avoiding stigmatizing labels. Practical goals often include improving communication, increasing confidence, managing strong emotions, and developing daily routines that support recovery and well-being.

Her background includes work with substance use and trauma, plus experience offering life skills training and rehabilitation-focused services. Valorie encourages people to take small steps toward change and offers steady support through that process.

Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life

Client-centered therapy places the person and their goals at the center. The therapist listens without judgment and helps people decide what matters most, which can be helpful for stress, life changes, and building confidence.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related patterns, and managing mood swings by teaching clear coping strategies.

Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and stronger interpersonal skills. It can help when strong emotions or relationship conflicts interfere with daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That process can change over time as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, parenting, or other responsibilities and to continue care during transitions. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, review homework, and check in between longer appointments.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.
