I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker from Massachusetts with over 10 years of professional experience. I enjoy working with individuals dealing with issues related to anxiety, depression, stress management, trauma, and sexuality issues. I have certificates in Adolescent Community Reinforcement Approach (A-CRA), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). I'd like to believe I have been successful in this profession for so many years because not only am I compassionate and non-judgmental, I value the importance of the relationship between a counselor and a client. Trust, communication, and empathy are so important in this field and it is important that clients feel validated. I appreciate the willingness to even browse the website to look for a counselor, it shows you're contemplating the work, which is the first step. Thank you for taking the time to get this far, and I hope that in some way I can be of service to you in helping you get to wherever it is you want to go.

My name is Javonne Spivey and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with over 10 years of experience. I have worked with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, trauma, and relationship challenges. My counseling style is genuine and validating. I am passionate about building therapeutic rapport with individuals to help them identify strengths as they work towards achieving personal goals. I believe therapy consists of a collaborative relationship and therefore I welcome feedback and encourage individuals to be an active participant in their treatment. My approach to treatment combines cognitive-behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. I am intentional about educating individuals about the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and highlighting the power of thoughts and self-talk. I am a Christian and I enjoy utilizing scripture to help individuals achieve wellness that will lead to greatness. I have experience with implementing bible plans in treatment to help individuals address depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and purpose. I created a Christian mental wellness journal titled, Changing My Unhealthy Thoughts. The journal teaches the skills of utilizing scripture and taking thoughts captive to control and manage thinking patterns. The journal introduces a technique called prayerful thoughts. Prayerful thoughts are thoughts rooted in scripture. The journal encourages the reader to challenge unhealthy thoughts with scripture and replace unhealthy thoughts with prayerful thoughts. I appreciate your interest in working with me and I am looking forward to listening to your story and building a therapeutic relationship. My mission is to help you achieve wellness that leads to greatness. Let’s get started!
