About me

Hello. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor earning my MEd in Counseling in 1990. I have been an elementary school teacher, and have been employed at several mental health agencies. I have acquired experience in many areas of counseling. I began in assisting children and parents concerning school related issues. As I continued, I noticed that conflict in the family sometimes stemmed from parental discord. My practice has included couples counseling from the beginning and has become one of my special interests.

Goals for the counseling process are associated with maintaining healthy relationships as well as adapting various changes that can produce a positive impact upon our lives. During therapy, my clients are made aware of the power they possess, how to dodge problems, how to accomplish goals, and how to perceive life in a positive manner.

In my studies and in my practice, I have valued the meaning of a happy couple. Too often barriers grow to disrupt the happiness. I have used other models for couples therapy but The Gottman Method is my favorite because it is a research based program with a meaningful process that customizes principles to each couple's uniqueness. This is remarkably helpful in lending structure to our sessions. We will tackle the Seven Principles including concepts: awareness of our partner's day-to day world, values, hopes, aspirations, and stresses, to communication, managing conflict and solving problems. And much more to help us negotiate the waters.

This is your life, lets live it the best we can. It would be my privilege to help you.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Joyce Clark Reid. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Joyce is wonderful to work with. She made both me and my partner feel like she truly understood us as individuals and our personal struggles as well as collective struggles. I felt like she supported me while also respectfully challenging me to see what I was not seeing. She did everything she could to help us, we couldn't have hoped for anything more. Im grateful we were fortunate enough to work with her.

So far my experience with Joyce and Regain as a whole has been wonderful. I admit when myself and my partner decided that counseling/therapy might be a good opportunity for us, we were both a bit skeptical. However, our relationship has been impacted in such a positive way in such a short amount of time, it's almost impossible. Yes, I would recommend Joyce and the Regain program to other.
