More about Deitra
- 10 years' experience

- LCSW
Hello, and welcome! My name is Deitra Jones, and I’m proud of you for taking this step toward therapy. Reaching out for support takes courage, and you’ve already taken an important step toward creating positive change.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist with many years of experience in mental health, behavioral health, and substance use treatment. I also hold a certification in drug treatment programming.
My areas of experience include:
- Anxiety, stress, and depression
- Trauma and PTSD
- Substance use and addiction
- Co-occurring disorders
- Psychosis and psychotic disorders
- Justice-involved individuals and reentry challenges
- Self-esteem, guilt, and shame
- Relationship concerns and life transitions
My approach is warm, down-to-earth, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, strengths-based interventions, and trauma-informed care. I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so I meet you where you are and tailor our work to your individual needs and goals.
I believe in giving ourselves grace while still challenging ourselves to grow. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself.
You don’t have to figure everything out alone. I look forward to walking alongside you.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
