JoAnne is a seasoned professional dedicated to helping clients embark on their healing journeys through private practice sessions. With a rich background that includes serving as a first responder to child abuse and teaching high school students, she brings a comprehensive perspective to her work. Currently finishing her PhD, JoAnne leverages her diverse life and professional experiences to assist individuals in navigating major life transitions and addressing mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues.

As a client-centered clinician, JoAnne's approach is rooted in empathic understanding, active listening, and solution-focused interventions tailored to each client's unique path. She is particularly eager to work with adults, especially first responders, college-aged individuals, and those experiencing significant life changes such as marriage, divorce, empty nesting, and retirement. JoAnne's firsthand experience as a child abuse first responder, along with her research on vicarious trauma among service providers, enables her to offer deep support to first responders and others in high-stress professions.

JoAnne offers both in-person and telehealth services, including:

  • Adult individual counseling
  • Support for college-aged and early adulthood clients
  • First responder and secondary trauma needs
  • Guidance through life transitions (empty nesting, retirement, divorce, career change)
  • Treatment for anxiety disorders
  • Support for major depression
  • Trauma resolution
  • Behavioral modalities, including Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and others
