Meet the Therapists

Jo Richardson, LMSW

Hello! I am Jo Richardson LMSW, I have been serving the community, working with those that have experienced trauma, since 2008. I graduated with my master's degree from the University of Michigan's School of Social Work in 2012.

For the entirety of my career, I have worked with individuals that have experienced trauma and the most vulnerable populations. Helping others to heal themselves from some of the most horrific experiences. This work continues to be something that humbles me. I am truly honored to do this work.

I have been trained in several evidence-based practices including Dialectical Behavior Therapy: DBT (3 years of post-graduate training) Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction: MBST, Prolonged Exposure Therapy: PET, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing: EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy: CPT for PTSD. I am also a trauma-informed yoga teacher.

I have served as an educator, facilitator, and supervisor. I have provided training and workshops at the local, state, and national levels on the topics of social justice, trauma, and intersectionality.

I have lived experiences that add to my understanding of the complexities that impact mental health. I am neurodivergent (ADHD), have struggled with depression, and I am also a survivor of trauma, and I live with chronic health conditions (autoimmune diseases.)

My wife and I were married during quarantine in 2020 after ten years together. We have an adult daughter and are certified "dog people" with a pack of 3.

I practice yoga and meditate, I enjoy long-distance cycling, live music, gardening, and writing, and I am an avid reader.

My therapeutic style is rooted in the belief that the therapeutic relationship can be one of the most transformational relationships in someone's life. It is a relationship between equals, where the therapist is a compassionate clinical observer and guide.

As a therapist, I work to build strong relationships rooted in trust. I provide education to deepen your understanding of your mind and body. I provide unwavering support and objective feedback. I will teach you new skills and tools to cope more effectively.

I am also a doula and herbalist and mother of two daughters. My current therapy focus is serving women and mothers who are navigating fertility, pregnancy, parenting, and postpartum phases of their lives. I also am a knowledgeable therapist for the Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) population.
