Getting to know Michael Jones

My name is Michael Jones, and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) working with clients throughout California. I work with individuals, couples, and families, specializing in anxiety disorders-including OCD, Panic Disorder-and depression, using Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness. My therapeutic approach is tailored to each client's unique needs. I draw from Cognitive-Behavioral, existential, and psychodynamic therapies to create a personalized and effective path toward growth and healing. I am dedicated to helping individuals from all backgrounds who are determined to break free from the constraints of their symptoms. I have a strong commitment to serving LGBTQ clients, providing a safe and inclusive space for their unique needs and experiences. My communication style is warm, friendly, and empathic, fostering a safe and nonjudgmental space. Working with me often feels like a supportive and compassionate partnership, where clients can freely explore their thoughts and emotions. My journey to mental healthcare began with a lifelong fascination with the complexities of the human condition and profound questions explored in philosophy, psychology, theology, science, and the humanities. During my undergraduate years, I worked alongside a psychological researcher, deepening my interest in psychology. In my 30s, I made a deliberate choice to leave a successful business career and pursue more meaningful, purpose-driven work. I earned my Master's in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University and became a therapist, driven by a passionate desire to help individuals liberate themselves from psychological suffering.
