Joanne Schrock, LPC

Joanne Schrock is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina. She brings eight years of counseling experience alongside a long history as a behavior specialist. Joanne focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and related concerns while honoring each person’s goals and pace.

Joanne uses a cognitive-behavioral approach that centers on practical strategies and clear steps. She emphasizes building trust, honesty, and compassion so people can talk about hard topics. Sessions are shaped by what each person needs and by their own input.

Her background includes work in inpatient behavioral health and emergency room crisis settings, and experience supporting teens in residential treatment for trauma. That variety has given her familiarity with mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and anger challenges.

Joanne also has decades of experience as a behavior specialist. Her practice addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, parenting and family concerns, sleep problems, and difficulties with impulse control and communication. She helps people facing life changes, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.

People who want to start will complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist’s availability. Joanne works in plain language and focuses on concrete skills and collaborative planning to support people as they move forward.

How Joanne’s approaches translate to online therapy

Joanne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that keep problems going. CBT often focuses on teaching skills and setting small, practical goals to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, and low mood.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT-style skills can help when strong emotions, impulsivity, or intense relationship conflicts get in the way of daily life.

Solution-Focused Therapy is part of her toolbox for people who want brief, goal-oriented work. That approach looks at what’s already working and builds small changes that lead to noticeable improvements.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Joanne will discuss needs, goals, and preferences with each person and tailor the plan together rather than using a single method for everyone.

Session formats are not listed in the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer options for people who prefer not to commute. Licensed professionals adapt methods like CBT and DBT skills practice to work in remote sessions, focusing on real-life tasks and follow-up between meetings.
