I am the CEO and Founder of Joie de Vivre Counseling and Therapy. I hold a master’s degree in Professional Counseling and have over 14 years of clinical experience. I am passionate about helping women transform how they feel about themselves, their intimate relationships and living a more deeply authentic and meaningful life. Working collaboratively I will assist you in finding your voice, stepping fully into wisdom and empower you to create a life of passion and purpose. For women who struggle with anxiety my approach combines integrative mind-body techniques with cognitive behavioral therapy, and a strengths-based approach.

I specialize in helping individuals and couples to shift from an insecure to secure attachment style. A person struggling with insecure attachment experiences anxiety, avoidance, or both, making it difficult to create and maintain close relationships. This is most often due to past experiences that have yet to be processed and resolved, so they block the way to adult relationship success and lead to repeating patterns. Developing a secure attachment style allows you to confidently be yourself, set healthy boundaries, implement self-care, and build healthy platonic and romantic connection for a greater quality of life.

I'll work with you to collaboratively identify the best approach and tools for what you are experiencing at this particular moment. We'll look at your circumstances and goals to get a shared idea about our direction. We'll get curious about your patterns of thought, behavior, and beliefs. We'll build on your strengths. We'll discover which tools help you feel more resilient, empowered, and able to navigate strong emotions. This will prepare you to process the experiences that are often at the core of our adaptive strategies (i.e., what frequently gets labeled as "symptoms") allowing you to identify new choices that nourish you.

Have you experienced a trauma or life-changing event? Are you feeling stuck and struggling with anxiety or depression? Or are you just trying to figure out who you are or find a purpose? I am passionate about helping those who are working to find balance in their lives and those in need of finding that mind-body connection to promote health and well-being. I am experienced in working with Trauma, LGBTQ+ community, relationship and family concerns, and college students struggling to balance the demands of academics and daily living.

I commend you for taking the first step in creating a life that you love. So many of us are in the midst of experiencing life challenges that cause us pain. These challenges take many forms – family issues, health concerns, loneliness, financial strain, anxiety about the future…Sometimes, what may be causing us distress are dreams that have gone unfulfilled; life not going as planned. For many of us, we’ve struggled with such questions as, “Am I enough?”, “Who has my back?”, “Will I ever have the life that I want?”

Hi, I'm Dr. Spesh, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with specialized experience in culturally responsive treatment of anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. I'm a relational therapist at heart, meaning I deeply value the role of relationships and social connection in people's lives. I use my relational style with scientifically backed psychotherapy approaches to help move people toward their goals. I help people heal through past trauma and other types of emotional distress (e.g. anxiety, depression) that interfere with their relationships with themselves and others.

My approach is seen through a cultural lens that validates and normalizes your lived experiences and humanity. I am here to be a conduit for your healing journey by recognizing the wear and tear societal pressures may inflict on your mind and body. My work centers Black & POC individuals, couples, and families who struggle to create harmonious relationships with themselves and others due to learned dysfunctional patterns and intergenerational trauma from systemic inequities (familial, cultural, and societal).

Life presents us with many challenging events. It can be difficult to maneuver through the maze of life by yourself. I am here to guide you through this journey with an open heart and an open mind. I have created a judgement free environment, so we can explore your feelings of sadness, anxiety, loss, and any other emotions that you are experiencing. I integrate cognitive behavioral and family systems approaches and interventions. I believe a person's experiences are reflective of their family experiences, and that if a person replaces negative behaviors with positive behaviors, they can better their lives.

Stress management is essential to living a satisfying, happy life. In my practice, I help clients discover and implement existing coping skills while also developing new strategies for stress management. My approach to therapy is collaborative and supportive. I work to provide clients with practical skills to assist with immediate stressors - while also addressing underlying issues. I provide a safe and relaxed atmosphere making sessions productive and enjoyable.

There are times in our lives when we feel tired of the negative cycles, challenges, and issues we face. We must say to ourselves, I will be free from the stress, depression, etc...Je'serai is a French term that means "I will be," a name that is meaningful and as unique as the clients I see. We all want happiness for ourselves and in our relationships. However, life's challenges can often throw us off track. Difficulties are inevitable, but with support, guidance, and the willingness to change, you can overcome the challenges you are experiencing in your life.

Sometimes worry can feel like a never ending battle in one's head. Not feeling like yourself can lead to feeling stuck or lost. My work centers on supporting clients to recognize how the challenges of their lives impact their perspective and view of the world. My goal is to establish honesty and trust as we seek to understand which patterns are creating emotional discomfort. I work with clients on understanding how life stressors can managed and overcome through healing, developing skills, and living consciously.

I realized that we all have something that we want to work on within ourselves. I want to thank you for choosing me to help you on your journey to doing just that.

Navigating life is hard. It's often filled with unforeseen obstacles and life-altering changes. Finding answers to life's problems can leave you feeling overwhelmed, powerless, and alone. However, I can help you find and explore the answers you seek. While starting therapy and sharing your life can be scary, it is also a clear sign of strength. Restructuring thinking, creating balance, examining relationships, as well as addressing previous trauma, are all ways I assist clients in their healing journey.
