Hi I’m Laura J. Jones, a Licensed Social Worker in the state of New York with over 13 years of experience. It is my passion to help support others in reaching their full potential through progress not perfection.
My areas of expertise include: social-emotional regulation, stress, anxiety and depression, trauma, communication barriers, family/relationship problems and personal growth/self-esteem.
I specialize in many treatment modalities, including evidenced based practices. I have a specific passion for working with children, teens and young adults. As we know adolescence is the most challenging developmental stage filled with parent/child relationship strains, peer influences and self-discovery. With compassion and understanding, I work with each individual & family to help them build on their strengths, address their needs and accomplish their goals.
One of my favorite quotes is by Pablo Picasso, “The MEANING of life is to find your gift, the PURPOSE in life is to give it away!” and I strive daily to do just that. Looking forward to working with you!
