Getting to know Joy Svenson

I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) working with clients via telehealth throughout the state of NY. Throughout my career I've worked in the NY prison system, I've coordinated counseling skill-building programs for families and adolescents in Upstate NY, worked in school programs in Central NY, and now see primarily Adult clients and Supervise Permitted MHC's out of NYC. My experience is widespread and has informed my fully integrated and relational approach to therapy. I work with teenagers and adults, individuals, couples, and families, specializing in ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Life Changes, and Relationship difficulties. I utilize behavioral and mindfulness interventions, paradoxical therapies, and solution-focused supportive processing to help clients make progress toward their goals. My approach has been most helpful for struggling teenagers and adults committed to making changes and working through the challenges to break free from old patterns, define a new path, and embrace the necessary discomfort of change. Anxiety, Depression, and Relational Stress are often indicators that we need to change outdated parts of ourselves and/or our environment. I work to help clients understand themselves more clearly and build the skills and courage to attend to their changes. My communication style is active, compassionate, and encouraging. My clients feel comfortable talking about everything, knowing their victories will be celebrated and their intimacies regarded with respected with grace.
