Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Shekinah Joy Lee, LPC, founder of Purposed Joy, a faith-based mental wellness practice. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider, Certified Grief Counselor, and Grief Group Facilitator. I specialize in self-care, grief and loss, anxiety, ADHD, and faith-integrated therapy. With experience in education, addiction recovery, and eating disorder treatment, I offer a holistic, client-centered approach.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is eclectic and tailored. I integrate Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength-Based principles, and Motivational Interviewing depending on client needs. At the core of my practice is a belief that every individual holds the capacity for growth, and that living in alignment with purpose can unlock joy and healing. I’m also trained and certified in grief support and ADHD-informed care.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can expect a supportive, intentional space where they feel seen, heard, and empowered. My goal is to help you identify patterns, build healthy coping strategies, and reconnect with your purpose and joy. Whether we're working through grief, anxiety, or life transitions, I focus on practical tools and personal growth. Together, we’ll create a plan that honors your values and supports lasting change.
