Getting to know Kathryn Elizabeth Scruggs Jones

Welcome! Since you’re reading this, you’re probably looking for something. Maybe a new direction, a way to repair a relationship, or space to be heard. I support individuals, couples, and families navigating change, with a special interest in teens and parents, as well as clients seeking support around substance use. My approach My style is warm, authentic, and collaborative. I blend curiosity, compassion, and humor with evidence-based tools. Using motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and coping strategies, I help clients deepen insight and build skills that support lasting growth. My focus I often work with people who feel stuck or unsure where to start. They may use coping strategies that help in the moment but create new problems later. Together we explore patterns, clarify what matters, and build the insight and confidence to create change. My communication style I listen closely and ask questions to understand your experience and your goals. As trust deepens, I’ll challenge you gently and with respect when it supports your growth. I welcome feedback and view our relationship as a place to practice new ways of connecting. My journey to mental healthcare I’ve long been fascinated by how people think, feel, and grow. My own challenges deepened my empathy and commitment to this work. I combine clinical training with lived experience to support others in finding connection, purpose, and resilience. My goals for you We’ll start by clarifying what brings you to therapy and what you hope to gain. Goals reflect what truly matters to you and may evolve. I help you stay aligned with your values so our work remains meaningful and focused on what you need most. My first session with you In our first session, we’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you hope to achieve, and what to expect from our work together. You’re invited to share what works for you (and what doesn’t) and to ask any questions you have.
