Laura Yancey Jones, LPC — Therapist in South Carolina

Hi there, I'm Laura!

I’m a licensed counselor with 20+ years in education, private practice, and career counseling. I support parents navigating big responsibilities, emotions, and expectations, helping them understand and work with the school system so they can confidently support their children.

My focus

With 20+ years in education, I support women and families navigating stress, parenting, school challenges, or life transitions. I help you manage responsibilities, regain confidence, and find clarity—so you don’t have to face these challenges alone.

My approach

I offer calm, practical, and personalized therapy. Using CBT, solution-focused strategies, mindfulness, and strengths-based approaches, I help you set goals, build skills, manage stress, and gain confidence—creating a space to process, problem-solve, and make steady, real-world progress.

My communication style

I offer warm, collaborative counseling for women balancing parenting, school stress, and life changes. I listen actively, provide practical tools, and create space to reflect, helping you regain confidence, navigate challenges, and take steady, meaningful steps forward.

My journey to mental healthcare

I began this work from a passion for supporting people through change. With experience in private practice, school, and career counseling, I help clients build resilience, confidence, and clarity, guiding them to find footing, direction, and meaningful growth even in challenging times.

My goals for you

Starting therapy is a brave step. My collaborative, client-centered approach helps you set goals that matter—navigating transitions, reducing stress, parenting, or career growth. Together, we create realistic steps, offering support, strategies, and encouragement to build confidence and clarity.

Our first session

Our first session is a chance to get to know each other, discuss your goals, and set the pace. I’ll explain how I work and answer your questions. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel heard, comfortable, and ready to take the next step.
