Getting to know Joannie O'Connor

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology from New York University. I have also completed my psychoanalytic training at the Washington Square Institute in New York City. I am licensed to practice in both New York and Connecticut. With over 20 years of experience, I have worked with a wide variety of age ranges and diagnoses, including mood disorders, personality issues, trauma, and eating disorders. I work with my clients in an eclectic manner, drawing upon my extensive training and experience in diverse settings such as clinics, private practice, and inpatient and outpatient facilities. I received a Recognition and Commendation for Service to the City of New York from then-Mayor Michael Bloomberg for my work in crisis treatment and debriefing with the Fire Department of New York City at Ground Zero.

What should a new client know about working with you?

In our first session together, I will take a brief psychosocial assessment and then focus with you primarily on your presenting problem. I believe that each person is the expert of their own story, and that everyone has unique strengths that will assist you in overcoming your challenges. I think that taking the first step to sign up for therapy is courageous. From there we will work together on establishing long and short term goals.

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.
