Rachel M. Jones, LPC-MHSP

​

 For over eight years, I have provided client-centered individual and group therapy addressing problematic sexual behaviors, intimacy concerns, and a broad range of mental health challenges. As a Licensed Professional Counselor–Mental Health Service Provider, I specialize in sexual dysfunction and antisocial behavior patterns and offer trauma-informed, neuroaffirming care for individuals who are neurodivergent or have experienced trauma, including autism, ADHD, OCD, and complex PTSD.

My therapeutic style centers on helping people understand how their patterns formed—how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors develop over time and why those patterns continue even when they are no longer helpful.

​

I view insight as a learnable skill, not just awareness, and much of my work emphasizes psychoeducation so clients can understand "the why" behind their reactions and gain more choice in how they respond.

 

I have long been drawn to understanding violent and harmful interpersonal behavior patterns, which led to nearly a decade of work as a board-certified sex offense therapist for men with histories of sexual offenses, domestic violence, antisocial behaviors, addiction, trauma, and severe mental illness.

 

Through this work, I also recognized how frequently neurodivergence was present, leading me to pursue specialized training that now shapes my two primary areas of focus: problematic sexual and other addictive behaviors, and neurodivergence.

 

I place strong emphasis on acceptance, pattern recognition, nervous system regulation, and sustainable behavior change.

 

Additionally, for individuals with late or undiagnosed ADHD and/or autism, the internal experiences are often unseen by others, but deeply impactful for the individual. I work with clients to highlight their strengths, accept their differences, and empower them with communication and regulation skills.

 

At Wild Inside Counseling, I work collaboratively and with respect for each person’s internal landscape, viewing therapy not as fixing what is broken, but as understanding what was shaped—and learning how to grow differently.
