Dr. Jo Ann Formby, PhD

Dr. Jo Ann Formby, PhD

Psychologist
TX
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with a PhD in Psychology from Biola University. I have years of experience working with individuals facing a wide variety of mental health challenges and life transitions. One of my areas of training and expertise is working with those who desire a Christian or faith-based approach to therapy. My approach integrates psychodynamic and interpersonal process therapies with cognitive behavioral therapy strategies tailored to your needs. I provide individual psychotherapy to adults ages 21 and older. I am experienced in treating conditions related to depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, relational challenges, chronic illness and disability, and life transitions. My communication style is relational and practical. It is my hope that you will feel safe, empowered, and hopeful as we get to know one another and work together. I love being a psychologist because it brings me joy to see people heal and grow. I consider it a privilege to be trusted as part of that process in someone's life. Life presents many challenges, especially in our complex world, but there is hope to be found in opening up to new understanding and possibilities. My goal is to meet you where you are and support the goals you desire for yourself. I also help clients explore and formulate the goals they want and need. Through our work together, I hope you gain greater self-awareness, confidence, clarity, and a sense of choice and empowerment in life and relationships. Our first session is a time for us to become acquainted. One goal of this session is for each of us to begin to understand if we are a good match for working together.
