About me

Hi, I’m Joy. I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen, heard, and accepted—exactly as you are. My approach is all about creating a safe, judgment-free space where we can explore what matters to you, at your pace.

Whether you're navigating anxiety, self-criticism, or life’s messy transitions, I’ll bring compassion, curiosity, and a little humor to our sessions. Together, we’ll uncover your strengths and gently work through what’s holding you back.

Think of me as a guide who honors your wisdom—because you’re the expert on your life. Let’s figure this out, side by side.

Joy is amazing! I really feel comfortable talking with her. Ive been through so many therapists and she is by far the best one! I'm so glad I found her. I really believe that she's going to help me become the best me.

I’m so grateful for Joy! We’ve only been working together for a few sessions, but she’s been so helpful in such a short amount of time. She’s a great listener and support when dealing with such heavy issues. Thank you, Joy!
