Therapist Overview
Hello, I’m Joanna, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, specializing in children from Pre-K – 12th grade. I specialize in working with children/teens with anxiety, depression, and who are on the autism spectrum disorder. With 7 years of experience as a school social worker, I have seen the challenges that children who struggle with coping and social skills face. I work with children so that they can improve these skills through traditional talk therapy, as well as utilizing play and expressive art techniques. Together, I work with parents to create plans to support a child’s emotion regulation, social growth, and positive behavior. I partner with teenagers struggling with friendships and coping skills and young adults to exert their independence. I collaborate with schools, supporting parents through the IEP or 504 process.
