About Javonne

Javonne Spivey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 10 years of experience. She works with people who report depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, relationship strain, and stress. Javonne also addresses concerns such as grief, anger, ADHD, parenting strain, career questions, compassion fatigue, and life purpose.

Her sessions focus on clear connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. She explains how self-talk influences mood and behavior. Clients learn practical steps to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses over time.

Javonne combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her work. She uses scripture and prayerful reflections when clients want faith included. She has created a Christian mental wellness journal called Changing My Unhealthy Thoughts to support that approach.

In practice she encourages people to give feedback and take an active role in setting goals. Conversations can include step-by-step exercises, thought records, and short behavioral experiments. Sessions also explore strengths and values to guide next steps.

Her style is direct and educational, with clear explanations and concrete tools. People who prefer an approach that links thinking patterns to daily habits may find this helpful. Those interested in integrating faith into counseling can discuss how scripture might be used during sessions.

How her methods translate to online sessions

Javonne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in practical ways that work well for remote sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioral changes; it helps with anxiety, depression, and managing stress. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what matters to them and build motivation for change, which can be useful for career shifts, parenting goals, or habit changes.

Choosing the right approach is something she does together with each person. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then suggest steps to try. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions emphasize thought records, values-based goal setting, scripture-based reflections, or short experiments between meetings.

The original biography does not list which session formats are used, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a work break, reduce travel time, and keep weekly momentum with shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use written tools like thought journals or the Changing My Unhealthy Thoughts exercises between meetings to reinforce what was practiced in session.
