Joanna White , LISW

Joanna White began her career after earning a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice and spent several years working with the Prisoner Reentry population. Her early work provided direct experience with people navigating reentry challenges and the systems that surround them, which later informed a broader clinical focus. She went on to pursue a Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California while concurrently providing support to women and men affected by domestic and sexual violence. That dual background offered perspectives from both those who offended and those who survived harm, shaping a balanced, trauma-aware approach.

Joanna has extensive experience supporting people who have faced trauma, including domestic and sexual violence, childhood trauma, and disordered eating. She also works with stress and anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting and career challenges, and the many stressors that life can bring. Joanna frames change as a journey and views her role as a guide - helping each person find strategies and pathways that make sense for their values and goals. Her work emphasizes practical support during life transitions and healing after difficult experiences.

Could Remote Therapy Fit Your Needs?

Many people ask whether remote therapy can really help. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person care.

One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect with therapists in the format that works best for them: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to fit care into busy schedules, handle mobility or transportation limits, or maintain continuity of care during life changes.

Therapists offering remote services are licensed professionals, and people may choose to change providers if they need a different fit. For many, online therapy provides a convenient, accessible way to pursue support and make meaningful progress toward personal goals.
