About Jo

Jo Ann McClure is a licensed counselor who works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, compassion fatigue, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and a range of life transitions.

Background and approach

She brings 18 years of hands-on clinical experience to her work and focuses on helping clients build practical coping skills, process difficult feelings, and restore a sense of balance when life becomes overwhelming. Jo Ann trained in community counseling and blends evidence-based methods with a compassionate, person-focused stance.

Her approach is warm, interactive, and tailored to each client’s needs. She draws from Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space and uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques to address unhelpful thinking patterns and ground emotional regulation.

Jo Ann also integrates narrative and solution-focused strategies to help people reframe their stories and identify manageable steps forward. She holds LPC and LCPC credentials and practices from Wisconsin, offering a steady, empathetic presence for those ready to engage in change.

How Jo Ann’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathic relationship where the client's perspective guides the work; this approach helps clients feel heard and supports exploration of values and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill-building, which can be applied to concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness Therapy helps people develop present-moment awareness and calming practices to reduce reactivity and increase emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Jo Ann works with each person to identify goals, try strategies, and adjust techniques based on what is most helpful. That process may combine elements from several approaches so the plan fits the client’s needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life or to continue care across locations. These formats let licensed professionals provide ongoing coaching, skill practice, and reflective conversations without requiring travel, helping clients maintain continuity of care and adapt strategies between sessions.
