Right from the start I’ve always felt very comfortable opening up to Joyce - she is extremely understanding, warm and empathetic. I always feel like I’m listened to and heard as Joyce picks up on everything that I talk about and gives the appropriate advice without any judgement and is very patient with me. I find everything that Joyce talks about very interesting and relatable which keeps the conversations engaging as well as helpful for coping with everyday things in life and not feel like there’s something wrong with what I’m going through. I always look forward to my calls with Joyce without feeling nervous or anxious at all. Joyce’s professional expertise, support and advice has helped me get through tough times and I highly recommend her!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She’s extremely understanding and kind-hearted. There’s a different sense of comfort when it comes to talking to her
Joyce guided me through my thoughts in an incredibly kind way, helping me uncover intentions and assumptions I did not realise. I’ve tried therapy before but she made me believe in the efficacy of therapy!
I cannot fault Joyce. She is incredibly kind and understanding. Every time we speak, I learn something new, both in terms of therapy and also about myself. I’m so thankful for her.
She is very understanding and has great insights into childhood trauma.
Excellent expertise and thought provoking questions.
