My name is Joniett and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. My goal is to provide a safe, open, and honest space where we can work together towards your actualization of your truest self. I believe that everyone has the potential to create and employ positive changes in thoughts, attitude and behavior that will allow your truest self outward. I provide individual and family therapy to adolescents, adults, and families with a wide range of mental health, emotional, behavioral, and relationship needs. I have experience in the inpatient, school, and community settings where I’ve worked with adolescents and adults in individual, family, and group psychotherapy. Throughout my education, training, and work with numerous clients, I have become especially interested and experienced in: • Working through past traumatic events • Depression and suicidality • Anxiety-related issues • Emotional identification and regulation • Academic pressure and goal setting • LGBTQQAAIP+ and gender issues • Race/Culture based fatigue/trauma • Relational conflict resolution and strengthening • Coping with transitions (academic, professional, and life transitions) • Self-esteem and image concerns • Substance use and Recovery

With a direct yet compassionate approach to therapy, I help clients identify issues that are causing distress in their lives. I have 36 years of experience and have written two books: "Bipolarized" and "Borderline" -- one on bipolar disorder and the other on borderline personality disorder. Many clients gain insight into their disorders through reading my books and identifying a list of issues to work on in therapy. Hypnotherapy is extremely valuable and I ask clients to record the sessions to listen to the recording every day. This reinforces positive messages to improve self-esteem, reduce anxiety, stress and depression and identify relevant issues on a subconscious level.

I use acceptance with my clients and don't judge them based on their history or their current choices. I want the client to feel comfortable, so they can start their journey, set goals, use coping skills, and improve their overall well-being. Counseling is a process and takes time. Some individuals require more time than others and that is okay. I believe in moving with the pace of the client, through setting goals and practicing tools is essential for change.

Congratulations on taking the first step towards prioritizing your mental health and wellbeing. Finding the right provider is paramount to your therapeutic success.
