My name is Joia Hillman, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Florida. With extensive experience working with individuals and their families in various settings—home, community, and hospital environments—I have gained a deep understanding of the importance of a collaborative approach. This involves working closely with clients, families, and multidisciplinary teams to assess and address life’s challenges.
My counseling philosophy centers on empowerment. I strive to help every person I work with overcome obstacles and develop healthier coping mechanisms. I am passionate about forming therapeutic relationships, which I believe are the foundation for meaningful change and personal growth.
I am so happy you have taken the first step towards better well-being. Reach out today, and let’s work together to navigate life’s challenges. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.

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.

Joia is a great therapist. She is very compassionate and sweet but she asks the hard questions that you are trying to avoid. She makes an hour feel like 5 minutes. I feel like she’s my friend not my therapist!!
