I live in Texas and possess an unobstructed Texas professional counseling (LPC) license. I obtained a Master’s degree in Counseling and an undergraduate degree in psychology. I have worked for a mental health facility for six years and obtained experience in crisis, psycho-social rehabilitation, received training and experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and received a certification of training in Cognitive Processing Therapy for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I have worked with people of various ages and development. I have extensive use of the DSM IV and V. I have experience in working with those who have or have had substance abuse problems, and I have worked in two residential, judicial dual diagnosis centers. Dual diagnosis means these individuals not only have a substance abuse problem, but they have a diagnosable mental illness. There is continuous research and study, and I continue to search for arenas to expand and update my experience and knowledge in counseling techniques and in mental health. I have an extreme passion to see improvement, empowerment, support and progress not only in my clients but also in myself. I cannot help my client if I do not have those qualities myself. I am a believer in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and do not fear using Biblical principles in my counseling practice when requested. My main clinical approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I also adopt other techniques from other approaches such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Gestalt, Person-Centered (Rogerian), and Integrative/Holistic. I am a firm believer that every person is composed of physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual facets, and each facet has an effect on the other aspects of the person. I have counseled individuals who have received such diagnoses as schizophrenia, bipolar, major depressive disorder, borderline personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, anxiety adjustment disorder to name a few. My counseling style is down-to-earth, warm, and nonthreatening. However, I will set boundaries, and I can be firm regarding those boundaries. I will correct anything that enhances negativity or the stigma that seems to accompany mental illness. I also believe in treating my clients the way I want to be treated. It is my belief that everyone has the right to a more content and rewarding life. If you are brave enough to face the issues that have kept you from these goals, then I am proud that you have chosen me to stand by your side to help you reach your goals. I look forward to working with you!

I have been a practicing Social Worker for nearly 30 years in the DFW area. In addition to my practice experience, my 20 years of experience as a faculty member at a local university allows me to empathize and support young adults who may be transitioning from college to work. I also have extensive experience working with families of all ages who have difficulties with stress and communication. I specialize in working with individuals and families to heal and join together to become healthy, whole members of their homes and communities. I believe I encourage others to successfully navigate what can often be a difficult life path. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy, & talk therapy. I use solution focused methods and educate clients on how to use that will help develop long term success. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is a working team that begins with assessing the situation, setting goals, and developing a plan. I can help any person who has difficulty with relationships at home or work. I am available for individuals who feel emotionally overwhelmed and misdirected. My passion is helping others help themselves. I look forward to working together to help you navigate life. Once you have selected to work with me, I will contact you within 24 hours to get started. I will likely contact you sooner than that. However, if it is an emergency, please follow the guidelines indicated for clients of BetterHelp. Call 911 if you believe you are in a crisis situation. Again, I look forward to working with you.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I graduated from Liberty University in 2017 with a master’s in Professional Counseling, with a focus on integrating the Christian faith along with psychology (I get very excited when science catches up with the Bible!). I have over 7 years of experience in a variety of areas including facilitating DivorceCare®, group and individual therapy, and assessments. My therapy experience includes working with a wide range of cognitive abilities and severity of diagnoses in partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient settings along with my own private practice. My interests are working with issues involving anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, grief, stress management, marriage, and facilitating process and psychoeducational groups. I have training in sand tray therapy and am a certified Prepare/Enrich premarital counselor and Gottman Level One trained. With a foundation in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Existential Therapy, I have a compassionate, collaborative approach, encouraging psychoeducation and mindfulness of cognitive and behavioral patterns, along with discovering meaning and purpose in the life God has given. I believe in meeting a person where they are and helping to facilitate change in their life. I strive to establish and maintain a professional relationship with you, the client, characterized by equality and cooperation that allows you to explore needs, perspectives, and goals. As a helper, I will seek to come alongside you in offering encouragement and appropriate empirically sound interventions which may enhance the opportunities for you to experience growth and achieve personal goals. I encourage between session assignments to practice new intra or inter-relational skills, problem-solving strategies, or to develop additional cognitive and/or behavioral changes which may lead to symptom reduction. There may be outside reading as well, which is intended to not only educate, but also to serve as reinforcement of our discussions in sessions. I believe that prayer, Bible study, and the presence of the Holy Spirit within an individual are among the most powerful resources that can be applied.

WHAT GROWTH AND CHANGE DO NOT NEED TO BE: * painful or hard * take months or years * reliving all of the painful junk that you've already survived * being formal, awkward, or uncomfortable (newsflash: upleveling your life can actually be FUN!) * talking about alllll of the things that are not working in your life In fact, not only is it not necessary to talk incessantly about all of the things going wrong in your life in order to change them, I can tell you that that's exactly what we WON'T focus on in our work together. Instead, we'll focus on where you are HEADING and the life you TRULY want to create. Then we'll get you aligned with that desire and get the gunk out of the way that is blocking you (which is just the parts of you that are trying to protect you). HEY THERE! I'M DeANNE JOY. MY SUPERPOWER IS HELPING PEOPLE UNLEARN FEAR AND RECONNECT WITH THEIR AUTHENTIC TRUTH. What does that look like? It looks like releasing the old beliefs, thoughts, habits, and patterns that are no longer serving you. Falling in love with those parts of you that protect you when your 'stuff' comes up. Living fully, loving deeply, and sharing your gifts in the world. I am here to meet you where you are and support you 150% with what you want to create. A little about me... I'm a little bit spiritual, a TON of love and compassion, a heap of joy and FUN, mixed in with a whole lotta science, psychology, world-class tools, and no b.s. empowering accountability. I've had a three-decade career as a: * clinical therapist * end-of-life and trauma social worker * confidence & belief change coach * women's transformation coach * speaker * best-selling author * personal and leadership development facilitator I incorporate all of my experience and expertise, using both traditional therapy models (Cognitive-Behavioral, Person-Centered, Experiential, Solution-Focused, Strengths-Based, Humanistic) as well as world-class tools for rapid, long-term change including Tapping/EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Mindfulness, Meditation, Rapid Belief Change, NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), Hypnotherapy, and Guided Visualization, among others. I use the tools, techniques, and modalities that are most effective and most aligned with each individual client. I believe that we all have gifts that we are meant to share in the world, and that life is too short to accept less than what we deserve and are capable of. My gift is being a catalyst for transformation, joy, and peace on the planet. If you're willing to show up for yourself, roll up your sleeves, and do the work to reconnect with YOU, I'll be right there to guide you through it and you will undoubtedly experience great growth here. LGBTQ+ ally, member, supporter. This is a safe space for you to explore ALL of you, authentically and unapologetically, with no limits. WHO I AM NOT A GOOD FIT FOR: * You are not ready or willing to roll up your sleeves and do the deep work to create the life you truly want * You are not open to someone standing fiercely for your growth (that would be me), including compassionately yet firmly holding you to what you say you want * You are committed to going it alone * You are looking for someone else to do the work for you * You want your journey to be hard, boring, or uncomfortable (in fact, if you're NOT open to having this process be FUN and LIGHT, I'm probably not the most aligned person for you to work with) Good for you for starting by checking this out. When you're ready to say YES to you, I'm here. Let's do this...it's your time!
