My name is Joy Schemenauer, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton. My professional focus is on supporting individuals in crisis, particularly middle school-aged children, teens, and their families. I have specialized expertise in helping individuals manage depression, trauma-related responses, suicidal behaviors, and anxiety.
My therapeutic style is client centered, grounded in compassion, collaboration, and empowerment. I create a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals to explore their challenges, uncover strengths, and build resilience. Drawing from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-informed care, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each client.
Highlight clients' inherent strengths and capabilities, reinforcing their role as active participants in their recovery process.
