Hi there, I'm JoAnn!
I help children, teens, adults, and families manage crisis, transition, grief, loss, depression, anxiety, and trauma. My background as a teacher also helps families navigate their child's difficulties in the education system.
My focus
I work with clients ready to tackle thoughts, feelings, and behaviors getting in their way. I see children, adolescents, and adults facing uncomfortable thoughts, feelings, and behaviors relating to home, school, or work stress, depression, anxiety, crisis, transition, grief, loss, and trauma.
My approach
I use strengths-based, cognitive behavioral, and solution-focused therapy. I incorporate movement, art, music, and hands-on activities while talking through stress and problem-solving. I teach relaxation, communication, and conflict resolution tools to help you increase positive communication and self-esteem.
