About JoAnn
JoAnn Park is a licensed clinical social worker with thirty years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and trauma. She practices in New York and brings a steady, practical approach to sessions. JoAnn aims to make therapy understandable and useful for everyday life.
She adapts the work to each person’s needs rather than using one fixed method. That means sometimes focusing on emotions and attachment, sometimes looking at thought patterns, and sometimes tracing long-standing relationship or life themes.
Background and approach
She is familiar with substance abuse issues and understands recovery perspectives such as Alcoholics Anonymous. In sessions JoAnn listens for what matters most to the client. She uses clear language and straightforward steps to address problems like panic, sleep trouble, low self-esteem, grief, or difficulties with intimacy and communication.
She also supports people dealing with prejudice, LGBT concerns, and the effects of trauma. Her background includes longtime clinical practice with anxiety, depression, and addictions. JoAnn describes herself as a Christian and also respects other people’s beliefs and choices.
She tailors the pace and focus of work to fit each person’s story. People who choose JoAnn can expect a collaborative process. She helps clients set goals, tries approaches that match those goals, and adjusts the plan as progress is made or new issues come up.

Online support
Emotion, thought, and practical work online
JoAnn commonly blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name their core feelings and how those feelings shape relationships and reactions. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes listening and the client’s perspective so the person guides the pace and focus of the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and offers concrete strategies to shift patterns that keep problems going.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. JoAnn will talk through goals and preferences, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust based on what helps most. The aim is to find a workable mix that matches the client’s needs and comfort level.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for short check-ins, and messaging is helpful for ongoing support between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives without commuting, and they allow different ways to connect depending on what feels most practical.
