Joyce Bolender, LCSW
About me
I am licensed in Virginia with 30 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, coping with life changes and the aging process. My approach to therapy is based on the individual needs of each client. I use an eclectic style based upon the identified needs. My style is a good fit for all ages of adults with a lot of experience working in the older adult population. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. My communication style is calm, personable and comforting.

Additional areas of focus: Depression, Adoption and Foster Care, Aging and Geriatric Issues, Caregiver issues and stress, Communication problems, HIV / AIDS, Hospice and End of Life Counseling, Life purpose, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), Self-love, Young Adult Issues
