About Jon

Jon Barnes is an LPC based in Texas with a decade of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, trauma, and ADHD.

Background and approach

He draws on a broad practice that also addresses relationship and family concerns, parenting and fatherhood issues, sleeping and eating difficulties, anger and self-esteem struggles, and complex co-morbid presentations such as substance use and mood disorders. His background includes working with those coping with abandonment, attachment-related challenges, and the impacts of emotional and physical abuse.

Barnes trained in human services and completed a master’s degree in counseling, and he blends several evidence-based methods to meet each client’s needs. He practices with a person-centered stance that emphasizes collaborative planning and active listening, adapting techniques from cognitive behavioral therapies, dialectical approaches, acceptance-based work, and attachment-informed methods.

Sessions are shaped to fit practical goals and life changes, and he aims to help clients build skills for coping, communication, and longer-term recovery.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, then committing to values-based actions that move a person toward a more meaningful life; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical strategies for mood, sleep, and attention-related challenges. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relational patterns shape current relationships and emotional responses, helping clients address communication problems, trust issues, and attachment wounds.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will collaborate with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment plans are flexible and may combine elements from different approaches to address specific concerns such as trauma, substance use, or ADHD-related difficulties in a way that matches what the client hopes to achieve.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to access care from home or during a busy week. These options support scheduling flexibility and ongoing skill-building between sessions, allowing clients to engage in therapy in the format that works best for their life and availability.
