People seek psychotherapy feeling unhappy or helpless to bring about change in their life or fulfill their dreams. Patients are overcome with symptoms of depression, anxiety, eating disorders, substance abuse or other problems, which in reality are unconscious defenses, blocking repressed feelings about something that went wrong, often in childhood, which is not yet resolved. These defenses once were adaptive, by protecting and helping them survive, but are no longer effective. I help people work through their underlying grief and face their feelings (sadness, anger, disappointment, yearning, powerlessness) surrounding trauma or loss, enabling them to engage in more free, authentic, satisfying lives.

As a bilingual therapist who values a collaborative approach, I am here to accompany you on your journey to understanding the deeper roots of your experiences and how they impact your daily life. I am fluent in both Spanish and English, and can work in either preferred language. Through exploring your past experiences, relationships, and patterns, we will uncover underlying factors that shape your current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. The development of a trusting therapeutic alliance and the facilitation of self-reflection will enable you to see things from a new perspective and empower you to take meaningful actions.

If you are seeking support for a specific issue such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, or just hoping to feel more fulfilled and satisfied in your life, I am here to help. Together, we will build a safe environment to explore the thoughts, emotions, and patterns of behavior that may be holding you back. I am committed to helping you uncover needs, develop goals, and build in new coping skills to better manage challenges, improve overall well-being, and achieve personal growth.

Looking for purpose? Trying to understand life? Hard transition from or to the league? Questioning God? At the end of your rope? I may not have the answers but I can help you process your questions, your thoughts, and your situations. I'm here to team with you through this journey. I can partner with you and provide the needed support through life transitions, self-exploration, and self-development. Whether you are someone who is looking to understand their thoughts and behaviors, a couple looking to improve their relationship, or an athlete looking for an unbiased listening ear, I'm the therapist for you.

I work collaboratively with my clients to develop a treatment program that meets their individual needs. I employ research-proven techniques in working with a variety of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder and habit control problems. I also provide treatment for interpersonal challenges, such as relationship or personality issues as well as anything that interferes with the ability to live a fulfilling and productive life. While I work from a predominantly cognitive-behavioral framework, I often integrate techniques from other schools of therapy, particularly when working with complex problems.

Are you feeling frustrated, stuck, or unhappy in your work life or relationships? Is there a deep loneliness with no one to talk to or really understand? Psychotherapy can help and heal. With over 30 years experience, I work by creating a safe, nurturing and understanding therapeutic relationship. My approach is to actively listen and work collaboratively on gaining a deeper understanding of the feelings, internal struggles, obstacles, the impact of earlier life experiences, as well as repeating patterns of behavior that may be underlying symptoms and the root cause of difficulties.

Hello, my name is Joani Gammill. Thank you for taking the brave step of looking for help. I am called when you have a loved one that needs help for an addiction, whether that be a substance like alcohol, heroin, prescription drugs or a process addiction like gambling, but is resistant to getting the treatment they need. As a former RN, I have worked for seven years in an alcohol and drug rehab before doing interventions. I have doing loving, respectful interventions for 19 years now. My fees for the industry are the lowest you will find. Reach out and call me at (443)-926-4519.

I have a passion for walking people through the therapeutic process, for healing old wounds, solving problems and seeing profound changes in my clients' lives. All of my clients are my ideal clients. I love the psychotherapy process, both personally and professionally. In my opinion psychotherapy is both a necessity and a luxury in staying sane. Taking the time to care about yourself and/or your family, children or loved ones, focusing on what is hurting and not working well and trusting me to offer perspectives, insights, connections, ideas, advice, and understanding can turn most challenging situations around.

I am a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Health Coach with a broad range of experience in private practice, schools and universities, a private psychiatric hospital, and community mental health clinics. I believe that a strong, collaborative relationship between the client and therapist is instrumental in making change and growth possible. In a warm and caring environment, I help clients move forward with hope despite sometimes difficult circumstances; improve relationship and communication skills; and mobilize their strengths toward achieving life goals. I am insurance eligible, and many clients receive out-of-network coverage for their sessions.

I am accepting new clients at the moment via secure app. Sending that first message can be hard, but is also so empowering. I'll be excited to work with you towards your goals. Anywhere you are in your life. Therapy changes lives. My approach is integrative, humanistic, short, strategic with focus on Transactional Analysis. The ultimate goal of TA is Autonomy (freedom from a childhood script) that is achieved when 3 skills are released or recovered: Awareness, Spontaneity, and Intimacy. Cure as an ideal rather than merely making progress and learning new choices. We share a contract of change. Therapy has a beginning and an end.

I tailor my services to each client and their unique needs, always from the humanistic approach. That means that I see my clients first and foremost as human beings, having what we would consider a human experience. Clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, job issues, or really any other type of discomfort will benefit from my integration of mindfulness and meditative practices into their treatment, alongside the use of building the psychological tools that empower them to create measurable changes to their circumstances.
