Getting to know Joy Valente
Have you struggled with managing constant stress or coping with symptoms of depression, anxiety, mood disorders, or low self-esteem? Have recent difficult situations or relationships left you feeling overwhelmed? Do you feel as if you no longer have control over the challenges you face and need someone to help you see the light at the end of the tunnel? These moments can feel painful and unbearable, especially when they seem to last forever.
It can be tempting to escape or avoid the pain and struggles by engaging in maladaptive behaviors. Unfortunately, many people do not cope effectively with these symptoms or problems and may even engage in self-destructive behaviors unless they seek help.
I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Moody Bible Institute and a Bachelor's degree from the University of Mount Olive. My training equips me to support you through these difficult times and help you develop healthier coping strategies to regain control and find hope.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My role is to be a calming presence to help you master these coping skills in a non-judgmental therapeutic atmosphere. I have worked with adolescents and adults struggling with depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, mood disorders, low self-esteem, grief, and relationship issues. As a therapist, I believe and have seen that everybody can achieve a life worth living. My passion is to help my clients drive their lives toward that goal.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
