Joanna Strait is the founder of TogetherWell Therapy, a practice dedicated to the unique mental health needs of hopeful, expectant, postpartum, and grieving mothers. TogetherWell clinicians specialize in supporting those who are experiencing perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, infertility, miscarriage, stillbirth, birth trauma, and the transition to parenthood. Joanna is also a board approved clinical supervisor and offers supervision for perinatal clinicians based in Maryland and Washington D.C.

TogetherWell clinicians are warm and collaborative, with a focus on combining traditional “talk therapy,” with learning practical, solution-based skills to empower clients and support positive change as quickly as possible.

We know it can be challenging (and exhausting) to find a therapist, especially when you are balancing so many competing needs. Contact us for a free 20 minute consultation so that you can see if we feel like the right fit for you. If we aren't, for whatever reason, we are happy to give you alternative recommendations.

As perinatal therapists, we understand how important it is for our client's feel better as quickly as possible. We approach our work through several therapeutic modalities, but always offer solution focused strategies that clients can use outside of therapy sessions so that they have the tools to start feeling less overwhelmed right away.
