Joanna Gunn, LMSW, CAADC-DP
Limited Licensed Master Social Worker
As a dedicated Mental Health Therapist, I believe in treating the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. True healing arises when all aspects of an individual are nurtured. I take a holistic approach, recognizing the deep interconnection between emotional, physical, social, and spiritual well-being. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions, creating a personalized, integrative approach to healing. My client-centered approach provides a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals to explore their emotions, gain insight, and develop empowering coping strategies. Whether addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or life transitions, I help clients discover their strengths and build resilience. I am committed to supporting individuals on their journey toward emotional balance, self-discovery, and holistic well-being, believing that everyone has the capacity for growth and transformation.
