Getting to know Joann Tweeddale

Hi there, I'm JoAnn! My name is JoAnn Tweeddale. I am a licensed clinical social worker. As an LICSW, I have over 13 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. My approach I utilize strengths-based, cognitive behavioral & solution focused therapy. I incorporate movement, art, music & 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. My focus I work with clients that realize they are ready to tackle some of the thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are getting in their way. I work with children, adolescents (individual and family therapy), and adults who are facing uncomfortable thoughts, feelings and behaviors relating to home, school, or work stress. Other areas I typically treat are symptoms of depression, anxiety and I help clients manage crisis, transition, grief, loss, & trauma. My communication style 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. My journey to mental healthcare My career as a therapist has been a journey that began in high school when I took my first Psychology 101 course. I fell in love with trying to understand human behavior and eventually majored in Psychology and Spanish in college. After getting my master's in Social Work, I worked with children and families my entire career. I realized that I had an innate urge to understand my own family experiences with anxiety and depression growing up and loved being able to help others manage this as well.
