Meet Dr. Joanne Burgio, Ph.D., LP

Since 1983, I have been a licensed psychologist in full-time private practice. Today, I see patients in-person at my Meridian, Idaho office and offer secure telehealth sessions for clients throughout Idaho and Colorado.

Working with clients as we unravel emotional distress is a job I am honored to have and take very seriously. I am committed that each of my clients live a life they love, free from the turmoil of psychological difficulty.

Through therapy, you can work through your problems, achieve inner peace, and reconnect with your creativity, joy, and ability to grow. I bring more than 40 years of experience and a thoughtful, in-depth therapy approach to every session.

My Approach to Therapy

People are often shaped in ways they don't fully understand. There are feelings that, when left unattended, exist beyond our awareness. These emotions influence our thinking and our behavior. They are unconscious feelings that you and I will work to unravel and understand together.

Understanding these powerful unconscious feelings contributes to self-understanding and healing. When you become aware of emotions that have been driving your behavior without your knowledge, you gain the power to change self-defeating patterns, repair painful emotional wounds, and build a more fulfilling life.

My work aims to help you:

  • Improve relational patterns
  • Develop clarity and confidence in your behavior
  • Experience greater joy and peace
  • Prevent past experiences from interfering with your present
  • Cultivate increased self-awareness and emotional freedom
