Joanne Lindbom LICSW

As a licensed therapist, I understand that finding the right therapist can be a daunting task. At my practice, I am committed to providing a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. With over two decades of experience in the field, I have had the privilege of working with individuals from all walks of life, each with their unique stories and challenges.

About My Practice

My approach to therapy is rooted in a psychodynamic perspective, which emphasizes the role of the unconscious in shaping our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am also trained in cognitive and behavioral therapies, recognizing that different people learn and grow in different ways. Throughout our work together, I will encourage you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and actions, helping you to develop a deeper understanding of yourself and the world around you. This journey of self-discovery will empower you to make positive changes in your life, fostering greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, and personal growth.

My Experience

As a licensed therapist, I have had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds and contexts. My experience has taught me the importance of building trust, empathy, and understanding in the therapeutic relationship. With a Master's degree in Social Work from Hunter College/City University of New York, I have spent nearly three decades honing my skills, working in various settings, including hospitals, employee assistance programs, and private practice. My extensive training and experience have equipped me with the knowledge and expertise to address a wide range of issues, from anxiety and depression to relationship conflicts and trauma.

What to Expect

In our work together, we will establish a collaborative and confidential environment where you feel comfortable sharing your experiences, fears, and desires. We will work together to identify your goals and develop strategies for achieving them. Through a combination of active listening, empathy, and practical guidance, we will explore the complex interplay of factors influencing your life, empowering you to make informed decisions and take purposeful action.
