Joyce Brownel, LCSW — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Joyce!

I am passionate about helping clients gain the tools to face life's challenges and achieve inner peace.

My focus

I work with adolescents, young adults, adults, and the elderly experiencing depression, anxiety, disruptive behaviors, self-esteem issues, grief, anger management, and adjustment disorders.

My approach

I work from a holistic, strengths-based, and self-care approach. I collaborate with my clients while empowering and assisting them to overcome mental health challenges.

My communication style

I create a safe, calm, and pleasant environment, allowing my clients to feel welcome, relaxed, and comfortable.

My journey to mental healthcare

I witnessed how mental health stigma and lack of resources impact people struggling with trauma and emotional challenges. This inspired me to become a clinical social worker and help others overcome what affects their emotional state.

My goals for you

I prioritize open communication and active listening to understand your needs. We collaborate to set measurable, achievable, and realistic goals that focus on your treatment needs.

Our first session

Our first session will include building rapport, making you feel welcome and comfortable, and answering any questions about the therapeutic process. We'll discuss your treatment goals and what you'd like to gain from therapy.
