Warmth, Skill, and Deeper Change

Joanne is an incredible therapist. I am continually grateful to have her in my life. She has helped me develop into myself in a way I didn't know was possible. Thanks to her support and deep presence, I've been able to find my voice and exercise it in both personal and professional settings. This has meant that I have more agency in these spaces, and have experienced much more genuine connection with others. Joanne gives space for you to process, and also to integrate those learnings, which means that the insights I've gained are profound, and I'm better able to genuinely act from those insights.
Agency and connectionC.O.
Joanne is an incredible therapist and a gifted healer. The work we've done together has helped re-wire my nervous system to move beyond repetitive triggers and feel more at home in my body. I can literally feel my brain working differently! It's been amazing and I am incredibly grateful for her guidance. She uses progressive methods like EMDR and sensorimotor to bypass the stories and gently release the core traumatic events of the wounded / adaptive child responses. It's incredible. If you're ready to go beyond talk therapy and transform your life, I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I have had the privilege of working with Joanne over the past 4 years and have found her to be an incredible facilitator of personal growth for me. Her kindness, compassion, and intuition always put me at ease and create a natural flow for us to explore a range of issues. Joanne uses a variety of tools in her practice and always takes care to talk me through them and answer any questions I have. I have seen the benefits of working with Joanne in both my personal and professional life and am extremely grateful for her patience and overall support. I always look forward to our sessions and couldn't recommend her more highly.
Personal growthI.W.
Working with Joanne has been a game-changer for me.... Joanne uses the somatic method and it has been a fascinating and very powerful exercise. Joanne is a careful and calculated coach who approaches each session with curiosity and compassion. I have felt more progress in the areas of self-awareness, self-respect and self-love in just 1.5 years with Joanne than I did with 10 years of talk therapy. While talk therapy was very important and necessary, to make greater change and see more results in my consciousness, to increase my awareness of when I am being hijacked and to create more space and love for myself to come back to the adult present...
