Sylvia Joyner
Hello, I'm Sylvia Joyner, and I want to commend you for taking that courageous first step towards self-discovery through therapy. It's completely natural to feel some apprehension about starting this journey, but please know that you're making the right choice at the right time. My focus is on empowering adult women, just like you, to confront challenges and embrace positive transformation, particularly when dealing with issues like anxiety, depression, and stress. Regardless of the concerns you bring to the table, there is always hope, and together, we can work towards a solution that suits your unique situation.
With the distinction of being a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist (CCTP), I gently guide my clients toward healing, fostering more purposeful lives.
I'm deeply passionate about guiding you on your path toward personal growth and transformation. Through a holistic approach and evidence-based techniques, I aim to truly understand your perspective, your aspirations for change, and your individual circumstances. As your ally, it's important to me that we develop strategies specifically tailored to your goals, charting a course toward the transformation you desire. Together, we can do the work needed to help you thrive.

Drawing from my over 30 years of experience in Child Welfare, I am equipped to compassionately address, support, and educate women confronting crises related to child abuse, neglect, and abandonment.

The wealth of life experiences and professional insights I bring to my role, propel my unwavering dedication to this vocation. Guided by the capacity to effect positive change, I offer hope and healing for the personal growth of my clients.
