If you are seeking a great therapist. Smart, funny, respectful, kind, you should call Joanne.
Written on Mar 10, 2023 after therapy with Joanne for 2 years on issues concerning relationship issues
Joanne has been an immense help to me in working on a variety of issues including anxiety, depression. Isolation and over-drinking. She’s experienced, practical and just plain nice. I’ve worked with a few different therapists off and on over the decades, and she was the perfect fit for where I was at when I called Better Help. I’ve come a long way since that call, and I’m very, very grateful to her.

I was always hesitant and scared of therapy and meeting Joanne was the best thing that could’ve happened. Joanne makes me feel like I can say anything without judgment, and that’s exactly what therapy should feel like. I recommend her 100%.

Joanne is truly great at her job. The way she holds space truly allowed me to find courage in my choices. She really held space for me to heal myself which I was not fully sure could happen in therapy, but I am so glad I went. As a Black, queer femme, I highly recommend Joanne because she is truly here to help as best she can. Thank you. I look forward to working with you again someday if I should need it.

I loved to have Joanne as a therapist and friend throughout this last intense year. She really helped me to get to know more about myself and to learn to love myself. I took some of the hardest decision of my life with her support and I am such in a good and better place right now. Thank you

Joanne is great. She makes the environment feel safe and comfortable, and I feel like I can trust her and really open up about everything, even things that are embarrassing or that make me feel shameful. She’s very understanding, and I look forward to talking with her every week.

Joanne was very friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable. I felt seen and heard as I was describing what I needed support with and asking her questions about the different approaches she uses. She had a very compassionate demeanor too

My weekly chats with Joanne always leave me feeling better. The advice and guidance she has provided stay with me in even my most heightened states of anxiety. Being free of panic attacks and feeling confident in my mental health and well being is a wonderful feeling. Joanne has been an essential part of my journey to feel like myself again. I’m so incredibly grateful for her and her time.

Written on Aug 27, 2022 after therapy with Joanne for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and coping with life changes
Joanne has been open minded, respectful, and understanding from the start. She is a great listener and is very professional, so I trust being able to tell her most things. I know that she won't judge me, no matter what state I'm in or what I say. Being able to be vulnerable with someone who maintains a neutral perspective has been very grounding. She won't tell you what to do, but will rather encourage you to think of what your options are and what choice to make. I like that she respects my agency over my life, despite my struggles and weaknesses. I would recommend her as a counselor for anyone who has an idea of what they'd like to work on for themselves, but maybe needs some support, feedback and consistent check-ins to stay on track.

I cant even begin to explain how amazing Joanne is. Our sessions were filled with laughter, great advice and she always told me to write down things from the week I wanted to talk about, that way we can use our sessions to talk about everything. She helped me gather my thoughts as well as talk about things Ive been holding in for a while which was definitely a sigh of relief. Im super thankful I was paired with Joanne as my counselor!!

Joanne has completely changed my life. After the loss of my sister, I promptly began scheduling sessions with her to cope with the grief I was feeling. Joanne helped me find joy in little things, appreciate the beauty of every day, and always find time to do things for myself. Without her, helping me through this difficult time, I honestly dont know how I would have done it. I truly look forward to my weekly sessions with her and am so thankful for her in my life.

We all need a Joanne in our lives!
