My desire to help people took an unconventional route through several years of leadership in the corporate world. After receiving my bachelor’s degree in applied psychology, I realized that the journey was just a tool to do what I was passionate about helping people. This desire to impact others manifested in business settings and those I lead at work. I developed the ability to help these individuals improve their careers and, more importantly, personal lives. This led to the pursuit of my master’s degree in organizational leadership.

ABOUT

Tremayne Jones M.H.S., LPC, CCTP, C-DBT; owner of Betterview Counseling and Trauma Recovery

I’ve always had an interest in how the human mind works. My first psychology courses were in high school. As I began working with families and children, I became more intrigued by the impact of childhood trauma on teen and adult behaviors. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and treat a myriad of trauma-related mental illnesses.

When I was in grad school, I began doing research on how caregiver socioeconomic status and stress directly impacts their ability to care for children with mental and behavioral issues. More specifically, how anxiety and depression has a huge impact on their ability to provide care.

I then began learning effective ways to treat anxiety and depression as these mental conditions can be debilitating for those trying to be productive. I then began studying Dialectical Behavioral Therapy as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing as effective ways to treat these conditions.

I founded Betterview Counseling and Trauma Recovery to do something different. I wanted to be able to use my unique skills as a school-based psychotherapist for the past 13 years to help individuals, families, and children confidently navigate through life’s hardest terrain.
