Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Charlottesville, VA


Welcome, I'm glad you're here. I wear many different hats and enjoy working with adolescents and adults to address low self esteem, communication, anxious thoughts, scattered mind, or boundary setting. I also enjoy working with individuals who may be struggling with financial stress, career fulfillment and burnout, as I believe this is inextricable linked to mental health and wellbeing. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to support you.

I have a passion for working with adolescents and their families, as well as both younger and older adults individually. I enjoy working with clientele from diverse backgrounds and I strive to create a culturally sensitive, inclusive and affirming space.

Dr. Joy Mwendwa

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Centreville, VA


I believe counseling should be a place where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Many of the clients I work with are navigating important life transitions—work, school, marriage, family relationships, cultural identity, leadership stress, faith questions, or the pressures of professional life. I especially enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds, including professional women, TCK, MKs, PKs, Ministry families, African and Black and brown families, diaspora families, international professionals, and people who desire to integrate their faith into the counseling process.

My goal is to create a space that is both compassionate and practical. I want clients to feel safe bringing their whole story into the room—faith, culture, family dynamics, and personal struggles—while also leaving sessions with tools that help them grow and move forward. Whether we are working through relationship challenges, stress, anxiety, or life direction, I approach therapy as a partnership where we work together toward healing and clarity.
