About Kendall Jones
Kendall Jones draws his practice from a lifetime of varied encounters - with people of different cultures, through travel, and in his own inward searches for meaning. He frames therapy as a shared journey toward the essential longings people bring to sessions - to love, to belong, to discover purpose - and he understands how easily that quest can be stalled by sadness, anxiety, trauma, anger, loss, or feeling disconnected from oneself and others.
He recognizes how familiar feelings of hopelessness, overwhelm, numbness, fear, betrayal, or rejection can leave a person questioning who they are and what matters. Those experiences inform his stance in therapy: grounded, empathetic, strength-affirming, and oriented toward helping clients re-find meaning and hope. His approach is client-centered and accepting, inviting people to explore their inner life with compassion rather than judgment.
Kendall is an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - trained to provide psychotherapy and to support emotional and relational growth. With 25 years of experience working with issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and diverse cultural and end-of-life matters, he offers an informed, humane presence to accompany people on their path. He values walking alongside clients rather than positioning himself as an all-knowing guide, and he approaches each relationship with curiosity, respect, and a focus on meaning and resilience.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Kendall Jones
Kendall integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) in his work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with empathy and supporting a person’s own ability to find meaning and make changes, which is useful for issues of identity, grief, and life transitions. CBT offers practical tools to identify and adjust unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, often helping with anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. DBT teaches skills for tolerating distress, regulating intense emotions, and improving relationships, which can be effective for impulsivity, anger, and emotional overwhelm.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kendall works with each person to explore goals, strengths, and preferences, and he tailors methods to fit the client’s needs rather than applying a single model to every case.
Online sessions allow for flexible access to therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and connect from different locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who can adapt approaches to the online setting.
