About me
Hello, I'm Joanna. As an art therapist, psychotherapist, and visual artist, I bring a unique blend of therapeutic techniques and creative expression to my practice. My approach integrates mindfulness, EMDR, and a strength-based perspective, all while maintaining cultural humility and grounding in evidence-based practices. I believe in the power of therapeutic art techniques and other holistic modalities to help clients re-establish healthy relationships with themselves and others.
In my practice, I see creativity not just as an expression of our experiences, but as an emotional continuation of them. The creative process allows us to express what words often cannot, providing a deeper understanding and perspective on our experiences. Through therapy, we can examine our behavior patterns and expand our emotional vocabulary, ultimately guiding us toward personal growth and healing.
What illuminates my practice is the deep belief that our past does not define who we are; rather, it teaches us who we want to become. I am here to support you on your journey, helping you navigate life's challenges and transitions with compassion and creativity.
If you're ready to explore a new path and gain a fresh perspective, I invite you to reach out. Let's work together to uncover the strength and resilience within you.
