Getting to know Shannon Jones

Professional Background: I received my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and Clinical Art Therapy from Loyola Marymount University, and hold a Bachelor's degree in Communications and Gender and Sexuality Studies from Tulane University. Outside of having extensive psychotherapy experience providing holistic trauma-informed care to many individuals, couples, and families, I am also a professor and artist. Passion for Healing: As a highly sensitive teenager who struggled with anxiety and depression, finding both therapy and art made a profound impact on how I saw, operated, and engaged with the world. Since then, my passion for spreading and sharing growth and healing has only increased. In all of my work, I strive to bring kindness, creativity, curiosity, and cultural humility. Specialized Expertise: Though I have extensive experience working with teens and young adults around areas of identity and transition, I find fulfillment in serving a wide range of clients from varied age groups and backgrounds. As an expressive art therapist, I often integrate creative modalities into my work, whether it be traditional art-making or somatic work. I take a holistic and integrative approach, incorporating psychodynamic, relational, narrative, and humanistic modalities. Philosophy of Care: Therapeutically, I work from a place of deep compassion, groundedness, humor, and connection, aiming to tailor my approach to the unique and sacred individuality of each client. My goal is always to create a safe and supportive environment where individuals feel genuinely seen, valued, and empowered. While therapy may often be serious, I believe it's important to leave space for candor and levity for all of life's gray areas. Shannon Jones is a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and is currently working under the supervision of a licensed practitioner. Their CA license number is 140827, and their current employer is Courtnay Meletta.
