I believe the path to wellness involves taking a deeply personal journey back to self. We cannot fully connect with others without first connecting with ourselves. My name is Crystalyn Jones, and I have been a Licensed Counselor in Arizona since 2015. I am an EMDR trained therapist that specializes in complex trauma. I utilize Structural Dissociation Theory along with EMDR to help people integrate parts of themselves and find resolution to unprocessed trauma. Meditation personally changed my life, so I enjoy encompassing mindfulness into my practice and teaching even the busiest minds how to meditate.
I specialize in Complex Trauma, EMDR, Structural Dissociation Theory & Addictions. I am TRIPP certified to conduct Medication Assisted Psychotherapy to help integrate psychedelic experiences. I utilize various modalities from theoretical approaches including: EMDR, Structural Dissociation, DBT, CBT, REBT, ACT & Motivational Interviewing. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Arizona State University in 2007 and my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from University of Phoenix in 2015. The path to wellness was never intended to be walked alone and seeking support can allow us to reach our highest potential. There is hope.

Hello! I am Makayla Barnes, an LAC here at Innerlight counseling, welcome! Helping people work on their mental health has always been a passion of mine. As a counselor, I strive to build therapeutic relationships with my clients and to provide a safe, accepting, judgment free environment for them to learn, heal, and grow. This not only includes discovering the tools you already possess, but also learning more strategies and identifying additional strengths to overcome the obstacles you face in your life. Part of this work involves changing the challenging thoughts and beliefs that are holding you back, and replacing those thoughts and beliefs with encouraging and empowering self-perceptions.
I have experience working with clients from ages 5-65 years of age and see both couples and individuals. I generally work with Anxiety, Depression, Adjustment Disorder, Chronic Trauma. Issues I have experience with are low self-esteem, divorce, relational issues, anger management, social anxiety, low motivation, life stressors, etcetera. My main theoretical approaches are CBT, DBT, and Rogerian/Client-Centered, but I have incorporated differing kinds of approaches and interventions such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivation Interviewing, Psychoanalysis and more.
I graduated from U of A with a BA in Psychology and completed my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Grand Canyon University. I am receiving direct clinical supervision from AZBBHE approved Crystalyn Jones, LPC.

I understand that coming to therapy can be challenging and scary. Knowing this, I work to provide a safe and welcoming environment that allows my clients a safe space to openly express themselves freely. Through psycho-education and different treatment modalities, I work to help clients learn healthy therapeutic techniques to manage their emotions in a healthy manner. I work to help my clients identify their strengths and develop healthy lifestyles. I believe assisting clients in identifying their strengths is a step in helping clients become the best version of themselves.
I have an extensive amount of experience working with children, adolescents, young adults and adults. My experience has provided me the opportunity to gain knowledge in the areas of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, PTSD, trauma, grief/loss, and OCD. Other areas of interests I have gained experience in include life transitions and relationships.

Now accepting new clients! WEEKDAY AFTERNOONS AND EVENINGS. BOTH IN-PERSON and FLEXIBLE TELEHEALTH OPTIONS.
Let’s get real. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Seeking out a therapist who can help you on that path is the first step. How can I help you?
Many people see therapy as a very one-sided conversation, with little opportunity for interaction or getting to experience each other as real people. In my approach, you will find that I keep it real! I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are looking for while enjoying the process as much as possible and experiencing both yourself and your world in new ways. Your therapy does not always need to be painful.
Our lives are too short to surrender to bad relationships, hold grudges, let trauma control us, or be anxious/angry all the time. You deserve to be free of emotional pain and able to take everything that comes your way and respond to it with wisdom and peace. You deserve to find meaning/purpose in work, family, friendships, spirituality, and all other life areas.
I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Gottman approaches (Couples therapy). I can utilize other modalities as needed. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, depression, substance addictions, sexual addictions/disorders, and couples counseling. I have a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northern Arizona University which builds on over twenty years of work with clients in community corrections. I have helped individuals and couples find healing and understanding in desperate situations. Give me a call and let’s continue to write your story!

Now accepting new clients, evening appointments Available! EMDR trained and trauma informed!
Congratulations on taking the first step in order to heal and improve your quality of life. My
deepest passion is to utilize my experience and education to assist others with healing so that they can truly learn how to live and not just exist in life. We all suffer from different forms of trauma, and if left unaddressed it could negatively impact the quality of our lives and relationships. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families of all different races and ethnicities.
In order to assist my clients with the healing process; I provide a safe, warm, non-judgmental, and supportive environment so that the healing process can begin. I offer evening and weekend appointments in order to further support the clients.
My hope is for each client to be able to participate in Psychotherapy in order to address the difficulties which is preventing them from being “whole.” I work hard to maintain the client-therapist working relationship in order to show the clients their importance and value while maintaining professional boundaries. My goal is to meet the clients where they are in order to assist them with the healing process, accepting of themselves, connecting them with others, and God.
