About Joselyn

Joselyn Spence is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, practicing in Georgia with 12 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, life changes, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, sleep problems, anger, career stress, and compassion fatigue. Joselyn also maintains a focus on women's issues and offers support for those needs.

Her approach is person-centered and trauma-informed. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy to help people name patterns, test new ways of responding, and shift the stories they tell about themselves. Sessions tend to emphasize practical steps alongside reflection rather than abstract theory.

Joselyn brings creative and spiritual options for people who want them. Her background includes art therapy, ministry, and yoga and meditation instruction, and she offers mindfulness and somatic practices when clients are interested. Those options are presented as tools alongside talk-based work rather than as a replacement for more traditional methods.

She frames therapy as a collaborative effort. People who want concrete techniques for managing anger or anxiety, as well as those wanting to rework painful experiences, will find practical strategies and narrative work in sessions. Joselyn encourages using existing strengths to navigate current problems.

Her practice balances direct skills training with reflective conversation. For someone dealing with snapping at loved ones, workplace frustration, or resentment that grows over time, sessions focus on recognizing triggers, trying out new responses, and building sustainable habits.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can make their own choices about change. Online sessions that use this approach prioritize open conversation, clarifying goals, and building on a person's strengths.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change thinking and behavior patterns. In remote work this can mean structured exercises, thought records, and trying brief behavioral experiments between sessions to reduce anger or anxiety.

Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about their lives and helps reframe those narratives. Online meetings can be used to map problem patterns, name alternative stories, and practice new ways of relating to difficult memories or actions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods best fit current needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made or as different challenges appear.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-in meetings when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make some techniques, like CBT worksheets or narrative exercises, easy to use between meetings.
