Hi, I'm Mel Joy, a healer with 25+ years of experience witnessing how resilient people can be. We all experience ebbs & flows of transitions and struggles, while constantly evolving. Life can be both beautiful & messy, and I'm humbled and honored to help you sort through it in individual and/or group therapy. Our minds & emotions uniquely shape our perception of reality. No two people have the same experience, and there is no such thing as a "one size fits all" treatment modality. No matter how different we may be, one thing we all share is the capacity for joy & pain, and everything in between.
Hello, and welcome. I’m truly glad you’re here and taking this meaningful step toward healing and growth.

As your culturally competent therapist, I’m here to walk alongside you and help you move toward a more joyful, fulfilling, and empowered life.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Troy, NY starts with identifying what you want to work on. Whether you're looking for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or another concern, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in that area can make a meaningful difference. Troy and the surrounding Capital District — including Albany, Cohoes, and Watervliet — have a range of providers offering approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-informed care.
Beyond specialty, consider the logistics that matter to you: whether you prefer in-person sessions or virtual visits, what days and times work with your schedule, and whether a provider's communication style feels like a good match. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach and decide if you'd like to move forward.
