Great to meet you!

Special Jones was born and raised in MN, where she earned her B.S. in Social Work. Upon completion of her bachelor’s degree- she obtained her Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work from San Diego State University and has moved to MI to continue working as a Mental Health Therapist. Her practice focuses primarily on Children, Couples, Adults, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, ADHD, and Stress-Related Disorders such as PTSD.

My approach to therapy

Due to her wide scope of practice, Special not only offers competence in various areas; she draws heavily on the Person-Centered Approach in which therapy is tailored to each individual’s symptoms, needs, and overall goals. Other Modalities often used in therapy include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Play Therapy, gestalt therapy, and Art therapy.

What you can expect from me

In working with Special as your primary therapist you will learn and implement various coping skills to manage your symptoms, process emotions, challenge and reframe negative thinking, and gain a greater understanding of the “why” you think/behave/feel the way you do- all within a supportive and judgment-free space.
