Getting to know Joelle Doherty
Are you ready to make a change in your life? I can help you gain more balance, contentment, and peace in your life. Whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, a lack of confidence, or navigating through chronic pain or illness, I can meet you where you are, and together we can work to overcome these issues.
My approach
I utilize cognitive behavioral interventions to challenge many of the thoughts that keep you stuck. When we look at these together, we can often see where they've been holding you back from growing as a person. I also use mindfulness techniques to assist you in enjoying the present, rather than living in the past or worrying about the future.
My focus
It's easy to feel overwhelmed these days. Whether you are having difficulty with anxiety, depression, a hard life transition, self-esteem, or lack of focus and organization, we can work on coping skills that will help you feel grounded and aligned with your future goals.
My communication style
I provide a nonjudgmental and supportive environment, where you can feel comfortable expressing yourself. It's important to me to really listen and meet you where you are, with empathy and compassion. I can also provide down-to-earth and easy suggestions, when appropriate, to help you manage life's ups and downs.
My journey to mental healthcare
As an empathic and highly sensitive person, I was drawn to the counseling field as a young adult. In the process of counseling, I found that, by being authentic and relatable, I could assist clients in expressing themselves better, talking about difficult life situations, and welcoming positive changes into their lives.
My goals for you
I believe in breaking down big problems into small and manageable steps. When we do this, life doesn't seem so overwhelming. Together we can problem-solve and see each step as an experiment.
