Joy Helfers

MA, NCC, General Certified EMDR Practitioner

Hi there, I’m Joy

I received my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of the Cumberlands. I work with children, adolescents, and adults. Across all ages, I use a person-centered approach to help clients experience relief from relationship struggles, shame, anxiety, depression, and inner criticism, often through self-understanding and self-compassion. 

I am an empathetic clinician who strives to create a non-judgmental space where individuals feel heard and valued. My approach to wellness incorporates the integration of mind, body, and spirit. Believing everyone deserves a safe place to explore and heal, I use various therapeutic techniques to meet my clients’ individual needs. I also believes the relationship we have with ourselves is foundational to our mental health.

THE LIVING PONO APPROACH

in life, Pono stands for righteousness and balance

In Hawaiian, if a person is living Pono, it means that they have struck the right balance within themselves, with other things, places, and the people in their lives.

We take that same approach when helping you to grow.
