Allan E. Jones, LMFT, MA, MSEd, MS, SEP

Hamburg office/$300 session

Allan (AJ) is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), who has worked with couples, individuals, families, children, and teens specializing in the areas of anxiety, trauma, communication issues, healthy parenting, self-help, infidelity, sexual dysfunction and intimacy issues, conflict resolution, PTSD, and anger management for over 10 years. AJ earned his Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Medaille College and he earned two Master of Science degrees, one in K-12/Secondary Education and one in K-12 School Leadership and Administration from Canisius College. Additionally, he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration and Economics from S.U.N.Y Oswego. AJ is a certified Somatic Experience Professional (SEP), specializing in how the body processes traumatic emotional and physiological experiences.

AJ's theory most often stems from his firm believe that individuals and couples get stuck in their “daily grind” and that they are trying their best each day "just to survive.” He offers therapy and reflection to help those, who want assistance in making their lives more emotionally healthy and consistently sustained.

AJ has skillfully assisted individuals, couples, teens, children, and families dealing with communication issues; emotional, physical, and sexual abuse trauma; sexual and intimacy issues, financial concerns, self-esteem, parenting, conflict resolution, infidelity, anxiety, and anger management.

Skilled in a variety of styles and approaches, AJ most frequently uses Somatic Experience (SE), in addition to Structural therapy, Sensate Focus Sex Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, Play Therapy, Solution Focused Positive psychology, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as his most common therapy approaches.

After working 5 years as an Information Technology server and telecom engineer in the private sector; 15 years in the education field as a Information Technology Microsoft Certified Server and Domain Controller Engineer and Administrator (MCSE, MCSA) STEM public school teacher; and living, working, and teaching in Australia, Japan, and Washington, D.C., AJ transitioned to private practice and has been with Couple & Relationship Therapy Practice for over 10 years.

We do not accept any of type health insurance. You can call your insurance company and ask them, if you have any "out-of-network" insurance benefits for “Couples/Family” therapy (CPT code 90847), and/or “Individual" therapy (CPT code 90837). If so, we can provide a NYS billing receipt, which will contain the normally required Diagnosis and CPT code(s).

This is again for "out-of-network" reimbursement. Please know that our Practice does NOT interact with the insurance companies at any level. You must still pay our Practice up-front and out-of-pocket and submit your NYS billing receipt to your insurance company, separately at your choosing.
