More about Joan
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I was raised on a family farm with seven siblings. My farm family beginnings have created in me the knowledge that we all have purpose and we all search for meaning in our lives. My eyes have always been open to the beauty of nature and the harshness of survival. My years as a mother of six children have proven to me that strength can be found in each human being. Each child is unique in talent and ability. Every person must be nurtured and guided along the way. Hazards and obstacles are present, buts so is faith, attitude, and endurance. I have owned and operated a business. In this, we have enjoyed long term success and discouraging failure, complete with disloyalty and theft. I have been fortunate to have been raised in Christianity. I do know that throughout my life I have not walked alone. Because of the business loss, my life has found its true calling. The richness of the counseling relationship has opened my eyes to the joy of helping others realize their self-worth. It is my hope to facilitate the change in my client that serves to make his/her life more joyful and purposeful.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Joan is a very good counsellor, I am very comfortable talking with her and she is very knowledgeable.
Joan Davis is amazing woman of God who is a great listener and wonderful encourager. I couldn't ask for a more amazing woman to be my counselor.
Thank you
I arrived under severe stress from a surprise termination. I needed someone to talk to and air my concerns. Speaking with Joan, I started working on a path to recover. I have now arrived. Most important was her understanding of my motivation and recognizing why at age 74, I was not finished, more to do and achieve.
What little experience I had with her-just one therapy session by phone-I think she would be very helpful for someone with depression. But I’m not depressed. I take antidepressant medication to help control DID. She admitted this was not something that she had experience with, and I was pleased with her candor. She had a very calm voice which was very peaceful.
Excellent therapist will recommend to family and friends...
Great support and counseling
Have enjoyed our conversations and has been very helpful. Thank you!
I've worked with a few counselors in the past, and Joan is one of the best. She understands and me I feel comfortable opening up to her.
Very caring and provided the feedback I need. I would highly recommend this counselor.
Joan has been great she really listened to me. She helped me see the positives I have going on in my life.
Thank you, Joan, I'm doing better!
I feel very comfortable with Joan. It is nice that she is about my age and understands the issues we face as we get older. She gave me some work sheets to fill in and my immediate response was ,"oh no, stupid worksheets!" In fact, working through them was very helpful and make me think. I would recommend Joan to anyone. Also, my best friend's name is Joan, which I took as a "sign"!!
I really like Joan and I think she understands me and helps me.
Joan is being very supportive, and great listener, everything is perfect for me, but I can’t afford for that long consulting recently, but I will be back soon, and I will still would like to talk to her.
