The story
Welcome to True North Performance & Counseling, a private practice owned and operated by Gavin Michael Jones, LCSW.
Gavin aims to help clients develop an internal compass to guide their journey toward balance, growth, and success. For the last five years, he has worked at Princeton University’s Counseling & Psychological Services, where he specializes in sport & exercise psychology and nature-informed therapy.
Gavin takes a humanistic, relational, strengths-based approach and incorporates elements of Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, CBT, Internal Family Systems, Existentialism, and Nature-Informed Therapy. He works primarily with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, relationship difficulty, and performance anxiety/blocks.
His mission is to help clients reconnect with their purpose, align with their values, root in adaptive practices, and ultimately orient themselves to their individual True North.
