JoAnn Tweeddale

I have been honored to serve children, adolescents, adults & families as a licensed independent clinical social worker & public school teacher for the last 25 years. I have seen firsthand how therapy can transform lives & is why I am passionate about my vocation. During therapy, you will have a confidential, safe & supportive space to share your story, explore your strengths, abilities & be accepted & nurtured for who you are. In our sessions, you will create goals, together we will explore your progress, concerns & you will learn tools to manage stress & transitions to enhance confidence, peace & joy in your life. I utilize strengths-based, cognitive behavioral & solution focused therapy. I incorporate mindfulness tools & hands-on activities while talking through stress & problem solving. I teach relaxation, communication, & conflict resolution tools. I also help my clients understand developmental tasks & ways to increase positive communication & self-esteem. Every person & family is unique and is always doing the best they can with the tools they have. We all need help and support to get through challenging times in our lives. Please feel to reach out & contact me to set up a consultation to see if I am the right fit for you or your family. Specialties: The main issues I can help you with are stress, grief & loss, transition, anxiety, depression, anger, & problems with others at home, school or work. During our sessions, we will get to know one another as we create goals. Each time we meet, we will assess your progress, process any stress or concerns, learn & practice new skills & tools in a way that best fits you & your family. Credentials & Experience: As an LICSW, I have 15 years of experience helping children, teens, adults & families manage crisis, transition, grief, loss, depression, anxiety & trauma. My additional 11 years of experience as a teacher can help families navigate their child's difficulties in the education system.
