Joy is an outstanding counselor and a tremendous human being. I have supervised 55 aspiring LPC’s and Joy is among the best in every way. Joy is warm, caring, professional, and thorough. Joy is highly skilled as a therapist and is especially skilled in trauma, being EMDR certified. I would highly recommend Joy for any age client or presenting issue.
