Dr. Joanna Oestmann, LMHC, has 40 years of experience working with adults in hospitals, medical centers, rehabilitation, nursing homes, non-profits, and outpatient clinics as a therapist using a client-centered philosophy based on a short-term solution-focused therapy model and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy methods. Let's partner together on your journey toward reducing stressors and adding new methods for health, gratitude, and grace connecting your mind, body, spirit, and heart.
My approach
I am certified as Certified Addictions-Informed Professional (CAIMHP) and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and specializes in depression, anxiety, PTSD, adjustment disorders, relationship/intimacy issues, grief, and medical psychology. My treatment modalities include a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and is client-centered. I am an inclusive therapist and believe in diversity, equity, equality, and multiculturalism and empower individuals, allowing them to regain control over their lives.
My focus
Enjoy working with adult females who want to partner together on your journey toward health, wellness, gratitude, and grace connecting your mind, body, spirit, and heart. Choose you today!
My communication style
I will partner with each client to create a welcome, open, safe environment to share and together assess what is happening now and what the client would like to focus on for change.
My journey to mental healthcare
I always wanted to be a Licensed Mental Health Therapist and wanted to find ways to help bridge the gap of communication with children, teens, and adults opening the door to vulnerability, fear, and shame and transforming it together into a new super power for growth and change.
My goals for you
I partner with each client to create an individualized treatment plan and goals from their life experience and what they choose to work on for growth and success.
My first session with you
The first session is an intake session and will be inclusive of an introduction, hopes, expectations, review of the intake biopsychosocial assessment, and identification of the problem(s) and goal development. I help clients take a break from self-doubt and worry to stop fear from getting in the way of a healthy and happy you!
