About Joselyn
Joselyn Spence brings 12 years of counseling experience to her practice in Georgia, working from a client-centered and trauma-informed perspective.
Background and approach
As an LPC and LMHC, she weaves together evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy to help clients clarify patterns, reframe difficult thoughts, and build practical coping skills. Her training and background support an integrative approach that considers emotional, relational, and life-context factors.
Joselyn emphasizes a strengths-based stance that encourages people to use their existing abilities to face stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship or family concerns, and other life transitions. She offers an empathetic presence and collaborative stance, helping clients develop goals and actionable steps for issues like self-esteem, sleep difficulties, anger, career challenges, intimacy-related concerns, and compassion fatigue.
Her work also includes attention to women’s issues and the impact of trauma and abuse. Joselyn aims to create a therapeutic partnership that helps clients move toward clearer priorities and more effective ways of coping.
Approaches That Translate Well to Online Sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and creating a collaborative environment where the therapist reflects and supports the client’s own problem-solving. This approach helps with stress, self-esteem issues, and life transitions by prioritizing the client’s perspective and goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is practical and skills-oriented, helping clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop alternative behaviors and coping strategies. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and anger by providing exercises and structured strategies that adapt easily to remote work.
Narrative Therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships, highlighting strengths and alternative meanings that can change how a problem is experienced. It can be useful for grief, relationship concerns, trauma-related themes, and identity-related work.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist collaborates with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This can include blending elements from different approaches as progress unfolds.
Online sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and for connecting from different locations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy or changing schedules and allow clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable for their therapeutic work.
