Joanne Talbot

Hi! My name is Joanne Talbot, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am a trauma therapist specializing in reducing emotional reactivity, self-blame, shame, and guilt associated with traumatic events.

My approach

I use an individualized approach to therapy, focusing on your needs and goals. Trained in CBT, DBT, EMDR, Behavioral, and Solution Focused Therapies, I use an integrated approach to therapy. My clients benefit from learning distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. I help develop internal and external resources, alleviate attachment issues, and reprocess trauma.

My focus

I work with individuals and couples with a variety of presenting problems, from acute stressors to chronic mental health disorders. I utilize trauma-informed care to ensure that underlying issues are addressed.

My communication style

I develop a safe, supportive environment for my clients to address the most difficult times in their lives. I work to help people develop an increased acceptance of themselves and to feel more empowered.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always enjoyed helping people, and becoming a therapist felt like a natural choice. I love getting to know people and helping them grow through the therapeutic process.

My goals for you

Developing goals of therapy is an ongoing process as you work through past events and develop resilience.

My first session with you

During the first session, we will take a brief history and discuss reasons for coming to therapy at this time.
