Joanne Curgian

Joanne Curgian is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 14 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, addiction, mood concerns, and relationship or parenting challenges. Joanne aims to make therapy approachable and practical for people at different life stages.

She draws on client-centered therapy to follow each person's pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and build new coping habits. Sessions focus on clear steps and real-life strategies that can be tried between meetings.

Her background includes work in residential treatment, inpatient and crisis settings, substance abuse programs, probation services, and private practice. That range gives her experience with both urgent situations and ongoing recovery work.

Joanne places value on straightforward conversation and realistic goals. She encourages people to take the first small step toward change and then use practical tools to keep moving forward.

People interested in starting therapy are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session. Joanne works from Texas and conducts sessions in English.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Joanne uses client-centered therapy to focus sessions on each person's priorities and pace. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping people set goals that feel right for them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Joanne will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time based on what helps the person make steady progress.

Session logistics vary, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to use tools and worksheets during the session and practice new skills between meetings.
