Today we’d like to introduce you to Joy Roberts.
Hi Joy, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor that doesn’t believe in mental illness. I came into the field to advocate for voices that weren’t being heard. I realized that the mental health industry is rooted in capitalism, not humanism. This created great anxiety for me as my core beliefs go against the foundational ideologies that dictate the industry.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
There have been many obstacles and challenges on my professional journey. From dedicating myself to obtaining my master’s degree as a single mom with an autoimmune disorder to struggling in poverty three years post-grad degree.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
Let’s Talk Joy is a network of services, products, and resources dedicated to shifting the perspective of all things mental health. It is time to begin empowering ourselves and the community to connect through self-healing.
We believe that mental health is beyond diagnoses and much more about.
The awareness and acceptance of self.
We are different in the respect of taking a proactive approach to mental health through community and psychoeducation.
We offer talk therapy, creative therapy, group therapy, and coaching services.
I want the readers to know that we pride ourselves in offering something for every price point.
Is there something surprising that you feel even people who know you might not know about?
I’m also a beauty model and actively implementing creative and expressive arts into therapy.
