Joann Briles

Reaching out for help can be the hardest part of your journey to healing, but I am glad you are here! I have a history of helping others who are struggling with their gender identity, sexual orientation, relationship issues, trauma history, adoption, anxiety/depression symptoms, self-worth, and grief.

I am a Licensed Social Worker and graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University with my Master’s degree.  I have specialized training in helping couples and families using Family Systems, Narrative Therapy, and the Gottman Method.  I assist individuals by using CBT, Strength-Based therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.

I have extensive experience helping individuals navigate through grief and loss. I have also worked with families that wanted to walk through the Adoption process as an Adoption Expert.  I have an understanding of the process of becoming an adoptive family as well as children that have been adopted. 

If you are struggling to see all of the assets that you have within yourself to help you succeed, I will be there to help you grow as an individual and give you the tools necessary for growth moving forward. I feel that you are the best resource for your success and healing journey! I look forward to helping you on your healing journey!
