Hi! I'm Joy, an LCSW licensed in CT, MD, and NY. My private practice offers decolonized Psychotherapy for adults who identify as Black, Person of Color, or African immigrants. In addition to anxiety, depression and trauma, we work with individuals seeking to address self-toxicity, healing from narcissistic abuse, co-dependency and life transitions (Email is the best way to reach me). Learn, Unlearn and Relearn the best version of you through decolonized evidence-based therapy. Engage with your childhood, past, and present experiences; then create an adaptive present and hopeful future (Not accepting clients at this time).
