Joanna's Roots

Joanna's academic journey has roots in philosophy that established a strong foundation and curiosity around the big questions in life. Her own lived experiences and those of the people in her life opened a path towards healing facilitation. Her inpatient work deepening her understanding for complex mental health symptoms and the importance of understanding the dynamic nature of biological and social factors that impact care needs. Deep open minded listening and awareness of stigma have led her to feel at home working with complex concerns.   

Joanna's Approach to Therapy

​

I am deeply committed to providing compassionate care to individuals on their unique journeys of self-discovery and self-acceptance. My goal is to create a safe and inclusive therapeutic environment where individuals can explore their authentic selves, find empowerment, and experience genuine growth.

​

I recognize that each person's journey is distinct, and I approach therapy with an open mind, cultural sensitivity, and a non-judgmental attitude. I strive to foster an environment that celebrates diversity, honors lived experiences, and encourages self-expression.

I am dedicated to providing a safe, affirming, and confidential space where you can be seen, heard, and supported. I believe in the inherent worth and dignity of every individual, and I am passionate about helping clients embrace their authenticity, cultivate self-compassion, and thrive in their personal and interpersonal lives.

​

I see my role as one of  collaborating with clients in creating a therapeutic space where they feel safe to discover ways they can grow. By taking an evidenced-based, solution focused, and existential approach, I aim to provide a supportive environment where we can work together to reach goals.

​

It is an honor to walk alongside clients on their journeys of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and personal growth. Supporting their work towards building a life that is aligned with their true self that includes a sense of wholeness and fulfillment.
