Receive Therapy From Joan That Adapts to Your Life
Tailored approaches grounded in decades of practice and clinical insight
Ocean Waves of Healing offers evidence-based therapy for individuals and families navigating complex challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions throughout New York State. Whether you're grappling with the heavy burden of past experiences or adjusting to the various hurdles that life throws your way, you'll find a diverse array of therapeutic approaches tailored specifically to meet your unique situation. With evening and weekend appointments available, prioritizing your mental health becomes much more manageable, allowing you to fit your healing journey into your busy life without major disruptions.
Your therapeutic journey will begin with an in-depth conversation that helps clearly identify the difficulties you are facing, alongside your personal aspirations for growth and healing. From that foundation, subsequent sessions are carefully structured around methods that resonate with you—whether that includes EMDR, CBT, DBT, or psychodynamic therapy. Each session builds thoughtfully on the last, providing you with a safe space to reflect, process, and move forward at a pace that feels comfortable and right for you.
Founded in 2021, Ocean Waves of Healing brings with it over four decades of clinical experience, ensuring that each session is rooted in understanding and expertise. The focus remains steadfast on fostering a supportive environment where you can express yourself freely and work towards meaningful and lasting change. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all solution, and the diverse methods employed here reflect that fundamental understanding of individual needs.
We invite you to reach out and discover more about how our therapeutic services can support you on your unique path toward healing and growth. Together, we can explore the possibilities that lie ahead.

What Happens During Your Sessions
Every session is delivered through secure telehealth, allowing you to connect from wherever you feel most at ease. You'll know what to expect before each appointment, and the structure remains consistent so you can focus on the work itself rather than logistical questions. The methods used are rooted in research and adapted based on what's working for you.
Your therapist will outline the approach being taken, explain how different techniques apply to your situation, and adjust as your needs evolve. This isn't about following a rigid script—it's about building a plan that responds to where you are and where you want to go.

Comprehensive EMDR and trauma-focused therapy that addresses the root of emotional distress and promotes healing
