LGBT therapists in San Marcos, TX

Some of my passions include working with BIPOC and LGBTQ+ folks. I enjoy working with individuals and couples. I have additional training on Emotion Focused Therapy allowing me to connect with attachment needs and help heal through establishing a secure attachment in relationships.

Hi, I'm Joanna. I'm a licensed professional counselor-supervisor and I've been in private practice for 15 years. I see therapy as an educative process, and I utilize creative, adaptive therapeutic approaches in our work together. I work with people experiencing trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, grief, chronic pain/illness, and adjustment challenges. Treatment modalities include CBT, EMDR, KAP (Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy), DBT, somatic modalities, meditation, mindfulness, play/sand play modalities, energy psychology, and brief solution-focused therapies.

Professionally, I have spent a decade in education (five years as a classroom teacher and five years as a school counselor). This is my third year as a therapist outside of the school setting.

For my masters degree, I attended Texas State University in San Marcos, TX (Eat 'em up cats!). At Texas State, I completed my MA in Professional Counseling with two focuses: school counseling and clinical mental health.

As a former educator, the populations I support include adolescents, young adults, educators, parents/guardians, and caretakers.
