About Joyce Harris

I am licensed in Michigan with years of professional experience as a Clinical Therapist. I worked as a High School Counselor for years before switching over to Community Mental Health. I am certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have extensive experience in helping clients who are challenged with mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, grief/ loss or trauma. I work with my clients to create a caring, accepting and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I am sincere and caring and will work with you to help you reach your goals so that you can live your best life. Life can be challenging. With tools such as CBT and ACT, we can work to build the capacity to navigate and manage the challenges you are facing. I am here to support you in that process.

“Joyce is very nice and was to communicate with”

“Joyce was very empathetic and listened to my situations and needs ..”

“I am a productive and creative academic with 30+ years experience. But I hit a bump in the road with a daunting new project and was beset by imposter syndrome. Anxiety and paralysis began to undermine the whole undertaking, and worse, I was dimming my own shining light. Twelve weeks out from my deadline, struggling between first and second drafts, I decided to try Better Help and was connected to Therapist Joyce Harris. Working with Joyce transformed my whole experience: she created a space for me to give voice to (and challenge) my critical inner disruptor and to reframe my dread of vulnerability. She and I were very well matched, better than the algorithm might have predicted, and really connected around challenges for women navigating in high pressure fields. Joyce is very skilled in this area, and was instrumental in helping me break through to express my ideas and research with confidence. Happy ending to this story: my manuscript was received with rave feedback. But even before that feedback had been communicated, on deadline day when I submitted the completed draft, I felt really proud of my scholarship as a genuine reflection of my unique contribution to my field. That feeling is everything. Thank you, Joyce... I am so appreciative of your support on this journey to try scary things, get help along the way, and claim space.”

“Joyce has helped my son tremendously. She is great at communicating with me as a parent when I ask questions. I would pick her again.”
