She is a great listener and seems to know exactly when and how to respond in the very way I needed. <br /> <br /> She tells me what I need to hear and gives me direction and advice when asked which I really treasure and appreciate. I think I'm making good strides in my healing. My ability in handling my crap has greatly improved.”

It is evident with 25+ years of experience in therapy she is well versed in giving good advice , and putting things in perspective and giving another angle to various areas . Which is most helpful. She not only listens. She actively engages her patient. Thank you Joy for all you have done !”
- “Joy is appropriately named! She’s great to work with, and is a great listener. She provides the “emotional massages” I need to get me through these uncertain and sometimes stressful times! Her recommendations are on point without being preachy. I love the wise counsel that she brings to my often full table. After our sessions, that table feels lighter, thank goodness!”

- “I gave up on my last go at therapy. I felt like I was paying to vent and that just wasn’t what I needed. Joy does a great job of coaching me on how to help improve on the things i struggle with. She’s the best. What more can I say.”
