Hello my name is Joanie. Nice to meet you. So here are some thoughts & questions for you: Are you waking up to another morning feeling the same anxiety and dread about your job, school, self-identity, partner, or family? Does life feel like all too much? Or maybe even empty? Are you ready to take steps forward while being present in the right here, right now? To feel excited by life and at peace with it? To breathe in fresh air, whatever your obstacles? My approach begins with you and your relationship with yourself, the people around you, and your environment. We all suffer from common problems in life, love, and work, but the solutions that work for each of us are as unique as we are. My practice embodies emotional and behavioral self-regulation, multiple trauma informed, strength-based treatment modalities, and mindfulness techniques and nature therapy. I am trained in different approaches: Together, we will find what works best for you! Contact me for a free phone consultation I have lots of experience supporting, holding, cultivating a safer space with individuals from different back grounds (ethnic/racial, spiritual, LGBTQI*) and family configurations. Reach out through email or phone call and together we will walk this path of self discovery. It is your path, you deserve to be happy and fulfilled no matter the forks in the road. I also am a certified Shinrin Yoku nature therapy forest bathing guide if you would like a nature based mindfulness practice that may help you drop into a feeling of calm while also attaining clarity. I have cofounded https://www.shinrinyoku-united.org where myself or several other guides would be happy to support you.
