Bio

JoAnna LaFratta is a Licensed Master Social Worker

Texas LMSW #109835

Supervised by Ashley Stephens, Licensed Clinical Social Work Supervisor, LCSW-S #104594.

JoAnna is a licensed social worker who earned her master's in social work from Louisiana State University in 2022. Her Bachelor’s degree is in Applied Management.

She enjoys working with Adult Men and Women ages 18+ and couples. She is deeply compassionate and caring, and is here to support you through your challenging times, your journey of self-discovery, or simply through the ups and downs of day-to-day life.

JoAnna is committed to helping others using strength-based approaches and integrating a combination of evidenced-based practices dependent on the client's needs, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Gottman Institute relationship training. 

She is a 200-hour registered yoga teacher through Yoga Alliance and believes in the holistic approach to wellness. If the client is open to incorporating Breathwork in session, the positive effects are not limited to increasing self-awareness, improving focus concentration, and decreasing stress.

In her free time, she can be found outdoors, on a hiking trail or in the water, paddleboarding, kayaking, and spending time with friends and family. Reach out to JoAnna if you would like to see if her style is a fit for you.
