Dr. Joanna Buscemi, PhD

Psychologist
IL
Dr. Joanna Buscemi is a licensed clinical psychologist who earned her Ph.D. from the University of Memphis. She completed her predoctoral internship at the Medical University of South Carolina with a specialization in Behavioral Medicine and completed two postdoctoral fellowships: one at Northwestern University in Preventive Medicine and one at the University of Illinois at Chicago in the Institute for Health Research and Policy. She has received training in several evidence-based therapy approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. "My approach is empathic, client-centered, goal-oriented, and evidence-based. I believe in treatment that considers the best available research evidence along with client goals and preferences and engages in shared decision-making to select the right course for treatment. I set concrete goals each week with clients to make sure there is measurable progress and if not, I am open to changing the course of treatment with client input. I believe that with the right evidence-based tools, the client can make desired changes outside of the therapy room and that the best use of the therapeutic setting is making a plan for what will change on the outside and supporting that change week to week." As a psychologist with extensive training in health psychology and behavioral medicine, Dr. Buscemi often works at the intersection of health and behavior. For example, she often works with medical patients who also suffer from depression or anxiety and is an expert in the science of health behavior changes (e.g., obesity, diet/physical activity, substance use, adherence to medical protocols and treatments, etc.).
