Joselyn Spence, LPC, LMHC

Joselyn Spence brings a holistic and strengths-based approach to counseling, combining clinical training with creative and contemplative practices. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with advanced training in art therapy, and she holds graduate degrees in Art Therapy and Professional Counseling as well as a Master of Divinity. Joselyn is person-centered and trauma-informed, integrating Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when appropriate to help clients meet their goals. As a registered art therapist, she often weaves creative methods into talk therapy for clients who wish to explore expression through art.

Her background also includes training in yoga and meditation and experience as an ordained minister, which she may incorporate when a client wants spiritual or somatic tools alongside traditional clinical work. Joselyn has worked with people across the lifespan, from young children to older adults, and with diverse cultural backgrounds. She focuses on issues such as depression, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, sleep difficulties, anger, career stress, compassion fatigue, and life transitions, with additional attention to women's issues. Joselyn aims to empower clients by helping them identify and use their existing strengths as they navigate change and healing.

Integrative Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person’s experience; the therapist offers empathy and support while clients guide the pace and focus of sessions, which can be especially helpful for people working through identity, relationship, or self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical skills to change patterns of thinking and behavior, often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Narrative Therapy invites clients to examine the stories they tell about their lives, separating problems from the person and creating new, empowering narratives for coping and change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Joselyn works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts her style based on what proves most effective in sessions. Licensed professionals can offer these approaches in online formats, making it possible to receive thoughtful, tailored care from a distance.

Online therapy with Joselyn includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These options can make it easier to maintain regular sessions, access timely support, and integrate therapy into daily life.
