Joia is the best counselor I’ve ever had! She’s always so warm, welcoming, non-judgmental and she asks the best questions. I’m so glad that I met her!

Joia is a great therapist. She is very compassionate and sweet but she asks the hard questions that you are trying to avoid. She makes an hour feel like 5 minutes. I feel like she’s my friend not my therapist!!
