About Joy Gumm
Her practice also addresses aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, chronic pain, illness and disability, communication and family problems, forgiveness work, isolation and loneliness, and matters related to veterans and the armed forces. She draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing to shape conversations and treatment plans that respond to each person’s distinctive needs.
Joy emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every interaction and adapts her approach so that therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all model. She recognizes that starting therapy can require courage and affirms the decision to seek support. Therapy with her is offered in English.
