About
Joniett
I enjoy helping my clients make and achieve goals such as identifying and implementing healthy coping skills, making better decisions, decreasing impulsive behaviors, and building stronger relationships with family and peers. I approach my work by focusing on how feelings and thought processes inform actions as well as how environmental factors shape identity and outlook. I also consider how traumatic experiences shape my clients' lives and help their healing journey from such events.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading and watching high fantasy stories, listening to international music, spending time with family and friends, and visiting theme parks. I find excitement in escaping into faraway adventures that I can share with loved ones.
