About Jo
Jo Ann Partain-Broquie is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 22 years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. She also focuses on family of origin issues and related concerns like attachment, abandonment, and communication problems.
In sessions she keeps conversation direct and practical. She helps people talk through current problems and the ways early family roles still affect their choices. Often that means identifying patterns learned in childhood and noticing how those patterns show up now in relationships and self-image.
Her work draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centered methods, so the focus is on understanding how connections with others shape feelings and behavior. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and Trauma-Focused Therapy when painful events need careful handling.
Jo Ann aims to help people practice small changes that make daily life easier, such as clearer communication, boundary setting, and managing anxiety. Sessions tend to involve straightforward conversation, goal setting, and exercises to try between meetings.
She sees adult clients in Texas and conducts work in English. When someone is ready to begin, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first meeting to set goals and plan next steps.
How her approaches translate to online work
Jo Ann often draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current feelings and behavior. That approach focuses on patterns in relationships and helps people notice how they connect, pull away, or seek reassurance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering concrete skills for anxiety, low mood, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is reviewed.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about the current session options when you complete the matching questionnaire so scheduling and session length can be arranged to suit everyday life.
