Jade Bayones, B.S.
Counseling Intern
​

Hi, I’m Jade Bayones! I’m a Clinical Mental Health Counseling graduate student at Eastern Michigan University and currently completing my internship under supervision. I believe therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected, and supported, and I strive to create a welcoming space where individuals of all backgrounds feel safe to explore their experiences. My approach is rooted in person-centered and relational-cultural frameworks, emphasizing empathy, collaboration, and genuine connection. I work with clients to better understand their thoughts, emotions, and relationships while building skills that support emotional growth, self-awareness, and resilience. I am especially mindful of cultural identity, lived experiences, and systemic factors that shape each person’s story.
​
In sessions, I focus on meeting clients where they are and tailoring care to their individual needs using evidence-based practices appropriate for their goals. Whether you’re navigating stress, life transitions, emotional challenges, or simply looking for support and guidance, I’m here to walk alongside you as you work toward greater well-being. As an intern therapist, I provide services at a reduced rate, making therapy more accessible for individuals and families seeking affordable care.
