Tyisha Jones

Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor (LGPC)

Mental Health Therapist

Hi, my name is Tyisha Jones. I recently graduated from Trinity Washington University with a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I’m now a Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor in the state of Maryland, and I plan to continue my clinical training under Kristian Owens at Resilient Child Therapy.

I consider myself a wholistic wellness advocate with an interest in African/Indigenous traditions/frameworks. In various school and community settings, I have provided case and care management planning along with evidence-based interventions and assessments. My approach promotes the whole child framework where I engage a child from a mental, emotional, spiritual, physical, environmental, and overall integrative wholistic healing perspective. I love working with youth and families, and enjoy witnessing the growth and resiliency that young people display as I assist them through the therapeutic process.

Additionally, I am a 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher and death doula. I have also studied level-one sound healing. In my self-care time, I enjoy teaching and doing yoga, creating art and learning herbalism/gardening, all while spending quality time with my significant other, family/friends and my dog, Chumley.
