Cynthia Jones

My practice is rooted in deep listening.  I believe in the infinite wisdom of each person who comes to me for support and guidance. My role is to listen carefully and provide a sounding board to connect people with what they know is true. Therapy involves resource and skill building, identifying longstanding patterns of thought and relationships, and determining what is useful now. It is being present with self, situations, and circumstances and making right decisions.

I utilize trauma-informed, narrative, and relational-cultural approaches to support and assist people in managing relationships, life transitions, and serious mental health issues and addictions. I focus on the integration of body-mind-spirit for whole-person recovery.

Our goal is to align mental, physical, and spiritual values to make life manageable, productive, and optimistic. In my years of practice and continuing education, I value most the uniqueness of each person and the trust they instill in me to join them in their journey.

My education includes a Master’s degree in Creative Arts Therapy from Hahnemann University and a Bachelor’s degree in Physical Education from the State University of New York. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board-Certified Dance/Movement Therapist with over 35 years of professional experience. I worked as a clinical case manager in a managed care organization for 13 years.  My focus was identifying and reducing barriers to receiving treatment and providing resources for improved outcomes. I served in a variety of roles in the  Hahnemann University/Drexel University Dance/Movement Therapy and Counseling Master’s program over 40 years: Full time faculty, Adjunct Professor, Clinical Supervisor, thesis, capstone, and culminating project advisor, and contributed to curriculum development.  I am an Approved Clinical Supervisor providing clinical supervision to graduate students, new professionals, and seasoned providers.
