Joanna Poague, LCSW
Introduction
Hello and welcome! I’m glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Masters of Social Work from The Ohio State University. Before becoming a therapist, I taught graphic design and worked as a cosmetologist to put myself through school—experiences that have shaped my creative and grounded approach to therapy. I specialize in working with adults experiencing relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem issues, guilt, shame, trauma recovery, and substance use. My therapeutic approach draws from an eclectic and relational framework, centered around emotional warmth, attunement, and respect for each client’s unique path. I incorporate a range of interventions including Brainspotting, a powerful method that goes beyond traditional talk therapy to release trauma stored deep in the brain and body, opening pathways for emotional and physical healing.
