About Jo
Jo Ann Partain-Broquie is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue, and she also addresses life purpose questions. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.
She uses practical, talk-based methods to help people name what feels off and make small changes that matter. Jo Ann draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses client-centered techniques to focus on each person's perspective and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and adjust unhelpful thinking.
When trauma is part of the story, Jo Ann integrates trauma-focused approaches to reduce the hold of past events on today's life. In sessions she listens for patterns coming from family of origin issues, abandonment, or attachment wounds and helps people find clearer responses. She also addresses concerns like body image, communication problems, dissociation, and isolation.
Her way of working is straightforward and practical. Conversations aim to clarify what matters now, test small changes, and track what helps. Jo Ann can guide people navigating aging and geriatric questions, autism and Asperger syndrome features, avoidant personality traits, and issues around guilt, shame, and forgiveness.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jo Ann commonly uses attachment-based ideas and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Attachment-based work looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current responses, which can help with relationship problems and trust issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She discusses what feels most relevant, reviews how different methods might fit, and adjusts the plan based on each person’s goals and preferences. That discussion continues over the first few sessions so the approach can change if needed.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, many clients find remote sessions useful for fitting therapy into a busy life, shortening travel time, and making it easier to keep regular check-ins. Some formats work better for brief check-ins or when video is difficult, while others allow longer, deeper sessions. Ask about formats when you schedule so sessions can fit around work, errands, or caregiving responsibilities.
