Joanne Scarrone has long been curious about what makes people tick and why individuals can be so different while sharing many common experiences. With 20 years of clinical experience, she approaches each person as unique and believes their concerns deserve individualized attention.
She is a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania, authorized to provide clinical counseling. Joanne earned a Bachelor of Arts from Seton Hill University and a Master’s degree from Duquesne University. After completing her graduate studies, she trained and worked alongside a psychologist for 11 years, a period that deepened her understanding of how the brain and body interact.
Her specialties include stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, sleeping disorders, parenting concerns, anger management, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Her practice incorporates approaches that address depression, anxiety, self-esteem, grief and loss, stress, isolation, and feelings of abandonment. Joanne holds a perspective that people are generally doing the best they can with the resources they have available.
Outside of her counseling work, she enjoys gardening and painting. Her preferred artistic focus is portraiture, where she aims to capture not just a likeness but a person’s essential presence.
Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or managing life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person treatment.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the format that feels most comfortable, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain continuity when life changes make in-person visits difficult.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and if an individual feels they need a different match, they have the option to switch therapists at any time. For many people facing everyday mental health challenges, online therapy offers an accessible, effective way to get support.
