Joni Shinn, MSW, LMSW,
About Joni Shinn (She/Her)
Hi there. I’m Joni, a fully licensed clinician with Master of Social Work from Detroit’s own Wayne State University. I commend your effort and resolve to seek therapy, as I know what it takes. I am glad to tackle any issue with you but have a special affinity and experience with family and group mediation, gender and sexual identity, men’s issues, couples and family relationships, grief and loss, adjustment and transitions, cultural issues, anxiety and ADHD, and chronic health conditions. I use a variety of strategies and modalities to serve adolescents and adults age 13+, and I work in-office or via telehealth, whatever suits. Be rest assured, no matter the issue, whatever the cause, we will find the way.
I am in office T, Th and Saturday, and offer telehealth M, W, F variable hours.
