Great to meet you!

Donshae L. Joyner, Sr., LPC, is a compassionate and client-centered therapist who works with adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, anger, behavioral challenges, and life transitions. His approach blends evidence-based practices like CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing within a trauma-informed, culturally responsive framework. Donshae creates a safe, supportive space where clients are empowered to explore their experiences, build on their strengths, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

My approach to therapy

I take a collaborative, client-centered approach grounded in empathy, trust, and respect. Drawing from evidence-based practices such as CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing, I tailor treatment to each individual’s needs. I work from a trauma-informed and culturally responsive lens, helping clients explore their experiences, build emotional awareness, and develop practical skills for lasting change. My goal is to create a safe space where clients feel supported, empowered, and capable of growth.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, you can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space where your voice is heard and valued. We'll work together to set meaningful goals and explore the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that may be holding you back. I use a blend of structured tools and open conversation, tailoring each session to meet your unique needs. Whether you're navigating anxiety, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, or personal growth, I’ll walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and a focus on helping you build practical skills for lasting change.
