About Jon

Jon Barnes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, relationship problems, parenting strain, sleep and eating concerns, and challenges like ADHD or anger. He also supports people dealing with trauma, family conflict, and life transitions.

Jon favors a person-centered way of working that keeps the client's priorities in focus. He listens closely and helps people name feelings and reactions before deciding what to try next.

Background and approach

Sessions are practical and collaborative, with goals set together and adjusted as needed. Clinically, he draws from Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions shape relationships and personal patterns. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools to build coping skills and change unhelpful thinking.

Jon adapts techniques to match each person’s situation rather than following a single method. His background includes a bachelor’s degree in human services and a Master of Arts in counseling from Wayland Baptist University. That training, plus a decade of work, informs an approach focused on steady progress and real-world change.

People who work with Jon can expect straightforward talk, skills practice, and regular check-ins about what’s working. He aims to make sessions useful and relevant to everyday life.

Online support

Emotion and Action-Focused Care Online

Jon uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people see how emotions shape their reactions and relationships; this approach helps when patterns of withdrawal, anger, or disconnection keep repeating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still move toward valued actions, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and chronic stress. He also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early bonds influence current behavior and relationship patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jon treats the choice of methods as collaborative and adjusts strategies based on a person's needs, goals, and preferences. He checks in regularly and adapts the plan as progress or obstacles appear.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is helpful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suits brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options aim to make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when schedules change.
