About Joy
Joy Adle greets people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, grieving, or stuck. She describes a calm, straightforward style that helps people find practical steps toward feeling more capable. Joy works with individuals facing change and loss who want support to move forward and reconnect with what matters to them.
She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a Master of Science in Counseling and a Master of Arts in Spiritual Psychology.
Background and approach
Joy brings nine years of overall clinical experience, including a background in addiction counseling and family grief work. Her experience includes helping people regain a sense of purpose and self-compassion after difficult transitions. In sessions she blends talk therapy with practical skills.
Cognitive behavioral strategies are used to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness exercises help people notice stress and calm their nervous system. Joy also uses attachment-informed and emotionally-focused ideas to improve communication and relationships.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is part of her toolkit for addressing trauma and painful memories. She pairs that with spiritual and somatic practices when clients want body-based or meaning-focused work. The overall aim is to restore clarity, reduce overwhelm, and help people build routines that support lasting change.
Joy emphasizes warmth and collaboration in therapy. She invites clients to set concrete goals and practices between sessions. The approach is practical and paced to fit each person’s needs and life circumstances.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Joy uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions often focus on concrete strategies and homework that can be practiced between meetings to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address addictive patterns.She also draws on EMDR to work through traumatic memories and reduce their emotional charge. EMDR online is adapted to guide clients safely through processing and to pair well with grounding or body-based practices when needed.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, pace, and comfort level. That may mean starting with talk-based CBT, adding mindfulness exercises, or introducing EMDR when appropriate.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversational work and EMDR guidance. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a simpler check-in. Live chat or text messaging supports brief check-ins, coping reminders, or ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or other routines.
