Hi my name is Joanna! I am licensed in California with over 7 years of professional clinical experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, career difficulties, and depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, understanding, and compassion. I enjoy collaborating with clients on creating goals that are unique and specific to their needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey. I enjoy going on walks with my dog, hanging out at the beach, and going to the gym. I live my life by the principle: ‘we rise by lifting others’ - Robert Ingersoll.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session, we're going to do an initial therapy evaluation to discuss your presenting problems and areas of concern. We'll discuss diagnosis criteria to determine if you meet criteria for a mental health diagnosis, then we'll continue on to collaborate on creating your personalized treatment goals and discuss scheduling.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strengths as a provider are my collaborative approach with clients to determine not only what they would want to work on, but additional skills I believe would be beneficial to the client to learn in order to improve daily functioning and decrease identified symptoms.
