My name is Jo and I am glad you're here. It can be difficult to make time to take care of ourselves, so scheduling this first appointment is an accomplishment in and of itself. I've been a practicing social worker since 2016 and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2021. I've primarily worked with refugees, survivors of intimate partner violence, children, teens, and adults of all gender identities. I have experience helping those adjust to life transitions, chronic illnesses, relationship issues, self-esteem, and trauma processing.

The therapeutic relationship is one of healing and hope. Facilitating that relationship is very important because I understand the value of working with someone not pushing their usually well-intentioned agenda onto your situation. Someone outside our problems who has no investment in how we handle those problems can offer limitless perspective and an abundance of compassion. In addition to being a listening ear, therapists have many resources and tools to help us navigate whatever challenges and changes life throws at us. This is the type of therapist I strive to be.

Are you overwhelmed with parenting responsibilities or job stress? Is depression or anxiety keeping you from enjoying life? Are relationships or grief keeping you from moving forward? Are you eating or injuring yourself to cope with life's challenges? If so, I can offer a safe place to process these experiences and increase your ability to cope. I prefer a practical approach and frequently use solution focused brief therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and rational emotive behavioral therapy. I use homework assignments and psycho-educational techniques when appropriate.

No matter how big or small, we all struggle from time to time with life's challenges. When those challenges become overwhelming, it often helps to speak with a professional in a safe and supportive environment so one can make decisions, problem solve, and move toward personal goals.

I use a variety of treatment approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), tailored to meet the needs of each client and family.

Welcome to my practice! I specialize in working with children, adolescents, families and adults. I work hard to create a safe space for you to explore your needs and goals.

As a registered Play Therapist, EMDR trained provider, and ITCT and TFCBT certified counselor, I help you find a way to express yourself that doesn't rely on words alone.

You may feel like your relationship is stuck in the same rut and you are having the same argument over and over. It can feel hopeless, hurtful, and lonely. Life can feel difficult and lonely when you and your partner are lacking connection. This is where I can help. As a team, we can help restructure the way we communicate to one another to help create a deeper connection. I work with couples who struggle with infidelity recovery, negative communication patterns, and connection difficulties. (Day-Time / Limited Evening Availability).

Children, teens and young adults that have experienced trauma, anxiety and depression often have difficulty coping with everyday stressors.
