Meet Jonicia June 

  I am a Portland-born Clinical Social Worker with nearly a decade of experience serving youth and families, with a deep commitment to supporting communities of color. My work is rooted in both lived experience and clinical practice, allowing me to show up with authenticity, cultural awareness, and care.

​

  I specialize in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, mood disorders, and behavioral challenges through culturally responsive, clinically grounded approaches. I have worked across school-based, community, residential, and intensive treatment settings, providing assessment, crisis intervention, therapeutic groups, and care coordination to ensure individuals and families receive the support they need.

​

  As the founder of Talks With June, LLC, I am dedicated to increasing access to mental health services and breaking down the stigma surrounding therapy in Black and underserved communities. I believe healing happens when people feel seen, heard, and understood and I work to create spaces where that is possible.

​

  In addition to my clinical work, I lead trainings and workshops across Oregon focused on trauma, grief, suicide, gun violence, burnout, and culturally responsive mental health practices. My work centers on helping individuals and communities move toward healing while honoring their lived experiences.

​

  I earned my Master of Social Work from Portland State University, and my practice is grounded in equity, cultural humility, and a commitment to improving mental health outcomes for youth and families.
