About
I’m Joelleann, a compassionate Registered Social Worker who has spent many years providing community mental health counselling and psychotherapy. I continuously strive to provide culturally responsive therapy for adults, grounded in anti-oppressive, anti-racism, LGBTQI2S+ inclusive, and trauma informed frameworks. My practice philosophy highlights the importance of empowering communities and healing generational wounds. I have experience working with clients facing depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, burnout, self-esteem, life transitions, and various forms of oppression.
I have professional training in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), narrative therapy, and motivational interviewing. My intention is to walk beside you on your healing journey, nurture your relationship with yourself, and help you achieve your goals.
I look forward to helping you with your mental health needs. To schedule a discovery call and start your therapy journey, please visit the Natacha Pennycooke Psychotherapy website using the link in my profile.
