Hello! I graduated with a Master's Degree in Social Work from Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio, Texas and received my Bachelor's Degree in Social Work from the University of North Texas in Denton, Texas. I have over 10 years of experience in counseling with regards to individuals, couples, or groups. I have worked with children, teenagers, and adults through the years. My Treatment approaches include that of Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Brief Therapy. I feel that it is important to be genuine, transparent, and respectful when it comes to working with people. Also, I feel that "starting where the client is at" is conducive to a helping relationship. It is difficult to reach out for professional help when you are going through some hard times, but with your courage and determination, we can go through this journey together.

Joby was very helpful in finding ways to overcome some issues I've had with anxiety and my self-esteem. Even though it was a short time with her, I felt working with her was very flexible and efficient.

I have only worked with Joby once so far, but right off the bat she helped me dissect some of my biggest issues and gave me strategies (that work) to overcome my obstacles. She is kind, to the point, and solution-oriented. Another thing that I’d like to highlight is that Joby reached out to me during a week we have apart and asked me how I was doing. That kind of service and support is something that I personally have great value and appreciation for. 10/10
