I am an experienced therapist with over 10 years of clinical experience and several specialized certifications that I integrate into my practice to find the most effective treatment approach for each client. I believe therapy should honor each person’s uniqueness, values, and life story. Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and you may feel stuck, unheard, or unsure of how to move forward. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can explore what you are going through and begin to reconnect with the life you want to live. Together, we will work toward finding the balance, clarity, and emotional strength you are looking for. You may be struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, or a difficult life transition. Perhaps a recent crisis has left you feeling lost or disconnected. Therapy can help you regain direction, rebuild confidence, and reconnect with your inner strengths. With more than a decade of counseling experience, I deeply value listening to your unique needs and helping you discover meaningful solutions that align with your goals. My aim is to support you in becoming the best version of yourself and to help you create lasting change using evidence-based approaches that are both effective and sustainable. I offer individual, couples, and family therapy with flexible scheduling, including daytime, evening, and telehealth appointments. Sessions are available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I am honored to walk alongside you in your healing journey.

My ideal client is anyone who is sick of struggling, whether it be due to anxiety, depression, trauma, or other related issues. This client is anyone who can be vulnerable, and wants to put in the work so that they can better manage their life with the help of a caring therapist. My ideal client is not someone who plans on being in therapy forever, but someone who wants to learn the tools and skills so that they can manage stress in their own life in a healthy way. Let's create change together.

My daughter’s session went well. Megan listens then discusses whatever Jade brings up. She trusts her and likes her. Megan also talks with me to see if there is anything I feel she needs. She is thorough and right on target with her advice. We both like her a lot

Mica was great with M. After the session ended, I asked M how she felt and her face lit up with a big smile and she excitedly said “great!” She was very nervous to start, but she seemed much more confident and relaxed after the first session ended. She’s looking forward to next week! Thank you for offering weekend sessions!

We had such a wonderful experience working with JoAnne. She truly connected with our son and made him feel comfortable, understood, and motivated to be his best. The tools and strategies she provided have been incredibly helpful for our family and have made a real difference in his behavior and confidence. We’re so grateful for her guidance, support, and genuine care. Highly recommend!

The process was easy and even on my archaic devices I was able to connect easily and remain connected for the duration of our session. Although this was our first session I felt like my situation was actually seen and considered and our therapist has a genuine desire to help me meet the needs of my child. I feel like this may be the help we've been searching for for so long.

I work with children and families to support and strengthen their connections. I do individual and family counseling. Growing up is hard and so is parenting! We all have times when we could use extra support. Working with children means talking, role playing, games, and other activities. You can learn a lot using all of these! I am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools and Rebound and Recovery. I have experience with many approaches, including CBT and TF-CBT.

I find it helpful when my son’s therapist also uses some time to chat with me so that we are on the same page and so that I can share things with her as well. So far, my son loves talking with his therapist and has expressed that he really likes her. I hope it continues to go this well!
