Jolene Stokesberry

Guided by the belief that self-awareness is the most effective route to change and healing, Jolene Stokesberry, MA, LMHC, offers a unique approach to therapy that empowers clients to break old patterns and affect real change. As a licensed mental health counselor with a Master's in psychology, Jolene combines Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) with a psychoanalytic bent to create a powerful therapeutic experience.

Specializing in relationship therapy, Jolene excels in helping couples overcome communication barriers, whether they're facing new challenges or long-standing issues. Her expertise extends to individual counseling, where she assists adults and teens in navigating a wide range of emotional concerns and traumas that disrupt daily life and overall well-being. Jolene's approach is particularly effective for those struggling with blocked creativity or identity issues.

In her couples counseling sessions, Jolene employs EFT to examine relationship patterns and foster a more secure bond between partners. She guides clients in creating new conversations and interactions based on honest feelings, encouraging the discovery and expression of emotions in ways that promote connection rather than disconnection. This process helps couples develop more effective ways to listen, engage, and respond to emotional situations.

Jolene's individual therapy sessions offer a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to explore their inner world. She works collaboratively with clients to tie their behaviors to the dynamics in their lives and relationships, fostering deeper self-awareness and broader perspectives. Her psychoanalytic background allows her to help clients uncover and process underlying emotions and experiences that may be influencing their current challenges.

With a sliding scale fee structure for both individual and couples therapy, Jolene strives to make mental health support accessible to those in need. Her practice, Light Mind Counseling, is a testament to her commitment to guiding individuals and couples towards greater self-understanding, improved relationships, and a more fulfilling life. Whether you're seeking to put the spark back in your relationship or navigate personal growth, Jolene Stokesberry offers the expertise and compassionate support to help you on your journey.
