Great to meet you!

Hi! My name is JoAnna. I want to recognize the strength in taking the first step towards healing. It's not easy choosing who to trust with your mental health journey. I have experience in many areas, but I specialize in anxiety, depression, OCD, and trauma.

My approach to therapy

I believe in meeting each client where they are at, and working together to develop goals and milestones to meet them. The interventions that I utilize most are Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Behavioral Activation.

What you can expect from me

My approach is to provide a collaborative supportive environment where everyone feels heard and understood. My goal is to guide and encourage my clients as they identify patterns, establish boundaries, process difficult events, combat negative thoughts, and identify strengths and abilities.
