Joanne Swanson, LCSW

Psychotherapist
1102 W 6th St, Austin, TX
Hello and welcome! I am glad you are here and I would like to help. Are you struggling with depression and anxiety, navigating a difficult life transition or stressful situation, or experiencing sadness and grief over a significant loss? Are you wanting to experience more joy and gain confidence in your ability to face the often-painful challenges that life as a human being can bring our way? Do you sometimes experience overwhelming thoughts and emotions that lead to negative behaviors and mood states and get in the way of living your best life? Would you like to find a sense of inner peace, balance, hope, and meaning? I enjoy working with individuals and adults of all ages seeking to make changes and learn coping skills to manage painful and unwanted feelings and resolve problems that arise, as well as couples seeking to increase connection and improve communication and conflict resolution skills. My approach draws from clinical training and experience in psychodynamic, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral treatment approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Smith College and have 20 years of experience working with individuals of all ages and genders, families, and couples struggling with a variety of mental health issues and life transitions. I continue to love my work. A little about me: I am a partner, mother, daughter, sister, and friend. I am nurtured by being in nature, hiking with my dog, reading, cooking, and gardening. Since moving from Massachusetts in 2021, I have been enjoying exploring the Austin area.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
