Getting to know Joannie Sparks

IMPORTANT: Thriveworks cannot provide services to clients with Medicaid coverage. If you have Medicaid, please contact your plan directly to find an in-network provider. For all other insurance plans, Thriveworks will verify your benefits after you book through Zocdoc. If verification isn't completed before your visit, you'll be charged our self-pay rate of $200 for that session. AFTER YOU BOOK: Complete these steps to avoid cancellation or being switched to self-pay. 1. Check your email for instructions to set up your Thriveworks account. Within your Thriveworks’ account, sign consent forms and add a valid credit card, which will be automatically charged for copays, fees, post-insurance balances, and self-pay amounts. 2. If using insurance, upload clear photos of the front and back of your insurance card. 3. Expect a confirmation call from our team to verify your information and answer questions. CANCELLATION POLICY: Provide 48 hours advance notice to avoid the $135 late cancellation fee. I am an LCSW with 15 years of professional experience supporting clients through stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma, depression, grief, and loss. I also have extensive experience working with youth and adolescents, helping them navigate emotional, behavioral, and academic challenges. I create a warm, safe space where thoughts and feelings can be expressed openly and without judgment. It takes courage to seek support, and I am here to walk with you as you pursue healing, balance, and a more fulfilling life. I hold a master's in clinical social work from Tulane University. In our sessions, I take time to understand the concerns impacting your daily life and collaborate with you to develop a clear plan for moving forward. My goal is to help you gain insight, rebuild confidence, and begin experiencing meaningful improvement in the areas that matter most to you. I use a practical, growth-focused approach that supports reflection, skill-building, and real progress.
