Hello there. My name is Joan I have been a social worker for over 25 years. Like you, I have had my own set of challenges and believe the key to overcoming life's obstacles is learning to plan and cope. We can't control all the pain that will come our way, but we can control how we react to it. Of course, this is sometimes easier said than done and we need help. I would be honored to assist you in your journey towards a happier healthier you.
In our first session we will explore a bit of your mental health history and the reason for seeking treatment at this time then together develop a plan for moving your forward.
I specialize in working with families of divorce, clinicians suffering or recovering from addiction, victims of abuse and foster parents.
My ideal client is ready to make change but just may not know how to get started.
Joan Lawhorn offers therapy covered by Parkland Community Health Plan - Medicaid and UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicaid in Texas.
Most treatment methods available, however CBT is what I most widely use.
