Recent Updates From Joy Shabandar
Last updated | Monday February 17, 2025

The type of therapy I do is called existential and person-centered. I believe in unconditional positive regard and that all people are entitled to respect, care, empathy, and to seek what is in their best interest as a human being. My approach to therapy is that we all have the ability to change and grow if provided with the right tools and insight. Treatment goals assist you in what you want and I am an instrument to assist you in obtaining your goals whatever those may be. Trauma, Addiction, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Issues are my specialty.
PTSD, Trauma, Domestic Violence and Addiction can be devastating on people and their families. Healing and health can occur even after the most painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness associated with trauma, substance abuse and mental health issues can be overcome through a process of grief and healing.
As a professional counselor and alcohol and drug counselor for over 17 years in Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado and California. I have had the pleasure of supporting thousands of clients and their families obtain peace and control over their lives. Let me support you in your journey.
