Jovonna Atkinson MSW, CSW

 As a Certified Social Worker, I recognize that every client brings a unique combination of experiences, identities, relationships, and goals to therapy. Therefore, I strive to create a collaborative and individualized space where each client feels heard, understood, and empowered. 

My clinical experience includes working with adolescents, young adults, adults, and families navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, substance use disorder, life transitions, and other behavioral health concerns. 

My therapeutic approach draws from evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing. These approaches can help clients identify practical strategies that promote healthier coping, increase self-awareness, and support sustainable change.

I also recognize that spirituality and personal belief systems can serve as meaningful sources of identity, strength, resilience, and healing. When desired, I am prepared to incorporate a spiritual component in therapy that respects and honors the client’s individual beliefs, values, and worldview. 

Whether you're navigating a difficult season, working through past experiences, or seeking greater self-understanding, I am committed to meeting you where you are and supporting you along the way. 

You don't have to navigate it alone.
