Therapist

I believe that everyone deserves to have a therapist. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and you don’t have to take it alone. I work with teens (late adolescence) through adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking for support and clarity, therapy can be a place to slow down, reflect, and begin creating meaningful change. In addition to individual therapy, I offer couples and family therapy to help improve communication, strengthen relationships, and work through difficult dynamics.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Jenkintown, PA


Hi, I’m Joy! I’m a double board-certified nurse practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree and a Thomas Jefferson University graduate. With five years of nurse practitioner experience, I provide compassionate, personalized psychiatric care to adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, and other mental health concerns.

My approach begins with getting to know you as a person, not just your symptoms. I take the time to ask questions, listen to your experiences, and understand how your mental health affects your daily life. Together, we’ll develop a treatment plan that fits your individual needs, goals, and lifestyle. Whether that involves medication management, exploring new strategies, or adjusting your current treatment, my goal is to find practical solutions that work for you.

I believe mental health care should be collaborative, respectful, and judgment-free. I want you to feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself throughout your treatment journey. I remain flexible as we learn what works best for you, because your care should evolve with your needs.

Through my private practice, I provide in-person psychiatric care in the Jenkintown and Philadelphia area, with telehealth appointments available throughout Pennsylvania. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and supported as we work together toward better mental health. You do not have to navigate this journey alone, and I look forward to being part of your care.

Lockeisha Johnson

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Pittsburgh, PA


I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of nursing experience across behavioral health, trauma, critical care, geriatrics, and nursing leadership. Throughout my career, I have seen how deeply mental health affects every part of a person’s life, their relationships, work, sleep, confidence, physical health, and ability to feel like themselves.

I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for clients navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, mood changes, insomnia, stress, burnout, and life transitions.

My style is warm, empowering, holistic, and solution-oriented. I believe healing begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported without judgment. My goal is to help clients feel less stuck, reconnect with themselves, and move toward feeling whole again. Together, we will look beyond symptoms and explore the life experiences, stressors, sleep patterns, medical concerns, relationships, and personal goals that may be affecting your mental health.

I want clients to leave care feeling informed, hopeful, and equipped with a plan that helps them optimize what matters most and build a life they can truly enjoy.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe therapy works best as a genuine, human interaction—not a rigid clinical lecture. I’ve been working in the mental health field for nearly 20 years, bringing you seasoned experience while keeping things grounded in the reality that we’re both ordinary people doing our best. While I frequently work with LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent individuals, my practice is open to anyone ready for meaningful change—whether you're working through intense life disruption, burnout, or simply trying to get out of your own way. My focus is to help you build radical self-acceptance alongside relentless resilience, because no matter what life throws at you, you will always be enough to adapt, overcome, and take the next step forward.

My path to becoming a therapist has been anything but traditional. I earned my bachelor's degree in Fashion Design from Kent State University before discovering my passion for helping others, which led me to earn a master's degree in School Counseling from Long Island University in Brooklyn, New York.

For nearly 10 years, I have worked as an in-school counselor at a public high school, supporting adolescents through life's challenges with compassion and understanding. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, helping clients build practical coping skills, increase self-confidence, and navigate difficult moments with resilience.

My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward.
