About Jo
Jo Ann Partain-Broquie is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas with 22 years of experience. She focuses on common struggles young adults face, including depression, anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, and feeling isolated.
She uses a mix of practical, talk-based methods. Sessions aim to let people talk through what feels stuck and try out concrete steps to feel steadier. Jo Ann draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to notice unhelpful thinking patterns and attachment-based perspectives to understand relationship patterns.
Her style centers on straightforward conversation and collaborative problem solving. She listens for what matters to each person and then tests small changes together, rather than giving long lectures or rigid plans. For someone juggling school, a first job, or new relationships, this can mean focusing on quick skills for stress and clearer ways to handle conflict.
Jo Ann’s background includes long-term clinical work in Texas. Her approach has developed across many settings, and she brings that practical experience into sessions. She works in English and does not take international clients.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jo Ann commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based therapy in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and learning practical skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. Attachment-based therapy looks at how earlier relationship patterns shape current reactions and helps people try different ways of relating to others.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Then she uses that information to decide whether to focus more on thought-change exercises, relationship patterns, or trauma-focused care if that seems relevant.
Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter commutes, easier scheduling around work or classes, and the ability to check in without taking a long break. Online work can also make it simpler to practice skills between sessions under the therapist's guidance.
