My name is Joanna Intara Zim and I welcome you to my Psychotherapy Practice Website. Thanks for visiting. You’ll find information here about who I am and the kind of psychotherapy/counseling services I offer and provide for teens, adults, and couples. You’ll also find information here about my groups, workshops, practice building & consultation services, and trainings, as well as other information that may answer your questions about therapy and how it may be possible that I would be supporting, facilitating, and guiding that process with you.

Since 1988 I have been counseling and working with children, teens, adults, couples and groups. It has been a privilege and an honor to work collaboratively with so many people, courageously opening up to their own journey and healing process of becoming more and more whole, balanced, creative, powerful and listening to their own truest voice, and growing and becoming embodied in that more and more of the time.

My intention and deepest commitment is to provide a safe and supportive environment that allows you to truly discover your authentic, genuine self, and from that place to create anew, in interpersonal, emotional, mental, physical or spiritual aspects of life.

For more information on who I am please visit the Bio & Credentials section of the site.

Truly,

Seasonal Update

The cold winter time is upon us, and many different traditions indicate that this time of year moves us towards psychic strengthening; more able to surrender the passing year and its’ contents and processes. The light is minimal now, and the dark is long, and so the quiet of this time invites us in, way in, so that we can regenerate that which is left from this year and compost it through introspection into seeds of springtime birth with hopes and dreams for renewal in the next cycle. Perhaps this means a deep internal quiet and rest or sleep. Maybe certain aspects of the underneath self are more available to us now in the silence and the cave of winter than they have ever been. The invitation here is to consider, to try on where this may be unfolding within you, and to honor it yourself in a meaningful and compassionate way.

Current Book Review

This is a wonderfully articulate book for both clinicians and clients alike that invites the reader into the world of the bonds between parent and child that later create the foundations of relationship attachment. Reading this book will educate and awaken the reader to the necessity of an examination of the nature of these bonds and their acompanying fantasies, so that we may be ever more free to create healthier relationships based upon more mature bonds and be relieved from the confines of the "Fantasy Bonds" that were created with our early caregivers.
